TPTK vs nit line check.

guy is like 16/9 about over big sample. very nitty. given his nittiness, im pretty sure he rarely shows up w/ a 4, mostly just JT-AJ. there are pp's in his range, but unless hes on some straight dumb shit he dumps it on the flop. also, was the flop raise bad?

I like it. This totally seems like the bad player donking "to see where he's at" then not folding when you tell him where. Why no river bet though?

You could argue that the flop raise is bad because he'll just dump 99 or whatever, but I don't think he's going to continue betting or call a turn bet with it anyway. So might as well start getting the money in earlier if he's not going to be able to fold KJ.

$80/fold on the river, you're never getting raised by a better hand

I think the value of your play and a river bet is highly determined by the villain's opinion of your aggression level.

i think he perceives me as aggro, but i cant remember him ever calling off 3 barrels with worse than TP. however, i can remember many times where hes c/c 3 barrels with TP.

In that case bet the river too. You are either splitting or getting paid by KJ or 99+. The times he folds will help you get paid on future hands.
I just can't see QQ+ here not 3betting, but you would have his 3bet % to back it up. The only other hand is the 1 combination of JJ that is out. I can't imagine a 16/9 over significant hands getting too cute.
So I:
