    Default 3 trivial spots?

    I think most of the 100nl regulars will know the villain in question - nitzan123 - is this simply spew?
    He is the only player who has put me in horrid spots of the typical regs at 100nl - either in god mode or just plays me well. We have an aggro image


    No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (8 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    SB ($80.25)
    BB ($100)
    UTG ($103.20)
    UTG+1 ($81.50)
    MP1 ($127.15)
    MP2 ($180.05)
    Hero (CO) ($118.35)
    Button ($108.10)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with 7, 7
    2 folds, MP1 bets $3, 1 fold, Hero calls $3, 3 folds

    Flop: ($7.50) 6, 5, 4 (2 players)
    MP1 bets $5, Hero raises $13, MP1 raises $33, Hero raises $102.35 (All-In)???


    Villain is Micula213 - we have lots of history although i havent played with him much in 3+ months since i came back to 100nl and my game is much changed. I have a very aggro image at this table, but im not sure he knows.
    Clearly a lot of hands are very typical here. SB is a fish who is calling all sorts of muck and MP2 has been iso-raised by me a few times

    hand 1 I don't understand what you're trying to accomplish. I guess you have some outs most of the time but is villain really 3-bet folding the flop? I quite like calling the flop unless you're scared to rep the flush when it comes. Otherwise you're having to call 20 into 70 and in an ideal world you have ten outs and maybe some implied odds, so yeah, call.

    hand 2 is such a common and standard and difficult spot now that everyone knows how to 3-bet.. I dunno dude, sorry. I typically have reads that make this easier

    hand 3 um. What? At least call the river

    1 unless you think he is 3bet/folding ablot I dunno what raising accomplishes.

    2 anything but a fold seem terrible vs micula

    3 idk wtf you are thinking here but betting turn and river seems way better than bluffcatching. I would always call river given your line.

    Hand 1: good raise, now shove it in with at least 40% equity and hope you still have FE. $65 is already in the pot.

    Hand 2: How much of a raise is needed from villain to get you to fold preflop with TT? This seems like a good amount to me.

    Hand 3: Turn check call looks really silly. I don't see what it accomplishes other than to disguise the massive strength of your hand for value on the river. Could he have limped a big hand? How about a small pp trying to hit their gutter but then turning it into a bluff?
