1. Villain is a SS reg, not got a big sample on him, but this seems to be his standard 3-bet sizing and he's 3-bet a few times so far from the blinds vs LP opens. I planned to call preflop for this prize and get monies in on good boards like this as I figure he doesn't 3 bet 33-88 too often and I should be in good shape here. Also I can get snapped off by stuff like AQ AK etc. Spew?

2. This might be totally awful as I don't even think he necessarily expects me to fold A high here and his range could include a bunch of strong stuff (even Qx) that goes for a c/r on the turn) I hate this call and I don't love my flop call either.

3. I guess I'm wondering if preflop is just bad. 4-betting is pretty much my standard here but for some ingame reason I felt this guy was jamming a lot, probably because he's 3 bet me a couple of times before and is likely a dickwaving 100NLer.

4. Again I don't know if I like pre flop, can be dominated a bunch by both ranges here and can't feel super thrilled about felting TP vs the fish post flop. Think I prefer folding pre. Anyone call turn and if so what's the plan for river?
