Going by the text rather than the diagram…
I make the call and use position. Post flop play will be dictated by flop texture and V’s action. I expect he will c-bet the majority of the time, but I’m ready to pounce at the first sign of weakness.

clearly this is a shove all in. we have to take a stand at some point against this abuser. and what better time than when we literally have zero information. his losses indicate its impossible for him to have a hand, so shove here with 100% expectation of a fold. even if he calls, he could have us covered, or we could have him covered, but that doesn’t matter, we have an ace, and those always go the distance. time to let this one ride baby
