Hero ???

Over my 128 hand sample villain seems to be a very aggressive reg. He's playing 36/31/20% 3bet so far and seems aggro/barrely postflop as well. I don't have reads regarding his play in 3b pots except that he's not auto-cbetting everything (only cbet 2/5 so far in 3b pots).

Looking back, our hand might play better as a limp/call against a very aggro BB since I'm definitely not thrilled to play a 3b pot out of position.

On the flop, I'm wondering if I should just check/fold this? Feels pretty nitty with top2, but I can't see a good way to proceed. Our hand will be very hard to play on most turns, and I don't know if it's good enough to get in on the flop. I also think an aggro villain will play back a lot if we lead, since we rarely hit that flop hard.

Is there something I'm missing or should I just let him have it? Are there some reads/stats that make you strongly prefer a certain line? I guess we can ch/jam this if villain has a wide range and is cbetting at a very high %.

EDIT: I also think villain not cbetting a ton in 3b pots speaks in favor of ch/fold. If he bets, he probably has something, and the flop will check through kinda often and seeing a turn will usually make the hand easier to play.

Hi,

top 2 here is the nuts, as while this board misses your range, it misses villain's as well. There are a few options here. Vs a barrely opponent i would probably go for a c/c, c/rai line ott if the flush bricks, and c/c if the flush hits; vs some opponents i might just c/r here. Folding is out of the question with 2 pair, gutter and bdfd on a board that misses his range; it just makes no sense in my mind

Also l/c is definetly an option pre if you expect the c/r.

Regards,

Skod

Well now that you put it that way, I have to wonder wtf was I thinking We're flipping against overpair+FD for example and it's true that he has rarely connected with this board at all. Back to the drawing board lol. Luckily I didn't fold in game (ch/jammed and won against a wrap).
