Out of curiosity, step in villain's shoes. Facing the play over the whole hand what do *you* put the raiser on?
As dalecooper notes, good question. 3 betting the flop behind a miniraise which is *either* a flush draw OR a mighty strong hand (unlikely or bad line however) tells me smeone flopped a hnad thats going all the way.
hand range for me here is a set or a nut flush draw (perhaps a flush draw with pair) even two pair. Preflop action suggests these ranges are likely (i find premium hand ranges difficult here, im expecting a reraises from AA/AK type hands preflop) . If our villain had the nutflush here i could defend his play enough not to suggest calling station (or overvaluing of hand) however he doesnt and that board destroys his hand in reference to the 3 bet flop range. I thought the first time i saw this hand it was a horrible play by our bluffer but an even more horrible call by villain and i still do. Id still love to play a *lot* of poker with villain here because i can see him picking his spots horribly like he did he. IMO he beats nothing by the river that would three bet the flop. Absolutly nothing, considering the preflop action.
