I've been having some trouble with LAG players the past couple of days, especially those 3-betting light/often.
In this hand I was playing against a guy who was 3-betting frequently and his 3-bet in MP after 1k hands is 14.8% which is way higher than in other positions. I felt at the time like 4-betting or folding was the only option vs this type of player because I didn't want to let him see a flop with any random hand, but when he raises me all-in what should I do here? This is a hand I would usually fold to a shove but this guy seemed to be targeting me the whole game (3-betting whenever I raise etc.)
