    Default Blind Battle vs Solid Player

    Here's a situation I need a ton of help on.
    villain is 28/18/3.8 and is very capable of making a move here with any 2.
    He used up most of the clock before re-raising me here; is that a tell?

    Do I make a move here or just let it go?

    PokerRoom No-Limit Hold'em, $4 BB (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    BB ($629.60)
    UTG ($97.50)
    Button ($108.10)
    Hero ($459.90)

    Preflop: Hero is SB with 8, 8.
    3 folds, Hero raises to $14, BB raises to $48, Hero calls $34.

    FLOP [board cards 10, 5, 4]
    Hero checks, BB bets $73 Hero ???

    your hand may be good here, however you need to know how often hes doing this.
    His stats look similar to mine so anything you would imagine him raising with preflop he has probably repopped you with, so long as you have seen him repop in blind defence light.

    Yea, I was about to post this as I think its a pretty straightforward call, but how do you proceed on the latter streets? Im not asking for "Id do this on an ace turn if he checked...if he bet I would..." just a more general plan.

    I agree with this, but say the turn is checked through, river is an under card, do we typically bet for value? C/C? Not trying to make you write some long post, but when playing hands like this I have found myself to be unsure of how to play different rivers, whether value betting is good or c/cing or even c/fing. Any thoughts?

    against a good LAG which it looks like this guy is hes not gunna let you have this pot easy, especially after you check call the flop. i say fuck the later streets if your read on this guy is that you think your ahead at this point push the flop if you give him credit c/f. hes probably not repopping any hand with a 10 except a10 maybe so ask yourself if you give him credit for 1010-aa(im assuming 99 folds to a push) and if not put yo stack in

    I say call, hope he checks it down, or hope a really bad card comes and fuck with him.
