    Yup, Not sure if 3- betting OOP then playing fit or fold is profitable.C- B/f, this flop misses most of his range as well.

    C-betting in hand #2 would be a disaster. I think he played it fine, assuming he would have been folding to a larger flop bet.

    I tend not to cbet oop in 3bet pots if I completely miss the board, is this right/wrong/opponent dependent? In hand 2 a larger bet gets me off the hand.

    C-betting OOP in 3-bet pots is important even if you miss the board. The problem though, is this board is pretty low and has a ridiculous amount of draws. So it's likely what he has isn't folding, and is very likely to push.

    you need to be 3betting bigger, especially OOP. i usually make it 3.5x.

    I'd think this villain would have a lot more missed over in his range than draws.
