    Default 200nl AJs squeezed pot

    Caller is a fish.
    squeezer is a reg running 25/20, 6% 3bet, no other reads.

    I assume he would be squeezing light here to isolate the fish.

    I am quite lost throughout this entire hand.
    My image is taggy/nitty.

    $1/$2 No Limit Holdem
    5 Players
    Hand Conversion Powered by weaktight.com

    Stacks:
    Hero ($243)
    CO ($120.95)
    BTN ($221.35)
    SB ($201)
    BB ($171.05)

    Pre-Flop: ($3, 5 players) Hero is UTG
    Hero raises to $6, CO calls $6, 1 fold, SB raises to $26, 1 fold, Hero calls $20, CO folds

    Flop: ($60, 2 players)
    SB bets $32, Hero calls $32 ???

    Turn: ($124, 2 players)
    SB bets $70 Hero ???

    i think this statement in this spot defines why spoonitnow hates the phrase "3b'ing lite."

    he's likely 3b'ing a "lite" value range to iso the fish, but never bluffing. in other words, his range is, at worst, AJ+, KQ, TT+, so we never have him dominated, whereas we're dominated more than half the time.

    this hand plays well IP when he's "3b'ing lite" as in he has some premiums in his range but then a bunch of bluffs

    What hands, if any, are we calling with pre?

    Would rather call with pairs here, TT-QQ type stuff. Even lower SC's I suppose sometimes, knowing that fish will call behind, and we won't get dominated with those hands.

    QQ+ AKs AQs to play with the fish sounds good, 4bet JJ/AKo

    squeezer is a nit, id 4bet all my strong value hands QQ+,AK... call AQ,JJ TT for set value + dont wanna get it in pre vs a 6% 3b nit.
    Nine to five is how to survive - I ain't trying to survive / I'm trying to live it to the limit and love it a lot //

    I didn't even notice that the OP said the squeezer is a nit.

    I didn't say he was a nit, and I don't think we should be basing our decision on just the 6% 3bet stat alone.
    My 3bet% is only 6%, but when there is a fish in the hand, I will 3bet more hands to isolate the fish....I assume most regs would be doing the same.

    some do, but he still has to factor in that you're UTG here. Also 25/20 is pretty loose to be 3betting only 6%, I think your stats are a bit tighter than that but don't remember for sure.

    Don't assume people are good w/out reads, also is this the first time he squeezes vs the fish on this table?

    I still think his range is pretty tight regardless, even if its 88+,AJ+,QK, your AJs won't do too well w/out the initiative and his still rather tight range.

    If your image is nitty and he's still raising you then he definitely has something and is trying to get value. The best thing to do then is to fold.
