    Default Big Hand Deep in position, 3 bet pot vs reg

    Villain is a reg. We have plenty of history but most of it is coolers and me grinding him away. I have never been caught in a crazy bluff vs him since I think he’s pretty much never out of line vs me in big pots.

    He’s kind of nitty (20/13ish over big sample size) but smart. He knows I’ll defend his 3 bets light in position since I think his range is so tight. I recently showed down 89o in a 3 bet pot where I stacked his set 175bb’s deep on TJQ board.

    He has a big pair here 100% of the time, I think…. Until the turn.

    Also, he has flatted Ak pre vs me a few times before but always in position.

    Eff stacks are 388$

    Table "Dresden" Seat 2 is the button.
    Seat 1: WSOP08 ($417.60 in chips)
    Seat 2: HERO ($604.15 in chips)
    Seat 4: BMWCoupe ($388 in chips)
    Seat 5: kick_nutz ($213.50 in chips)
    Seat 6: dazzler5 ($187.12 in chips)
    BMWCoupe: posts small blind $1
    kick_nutz: posts big blind $2
    ----- HOLE CARDS -----
    dealt to HERO
    dazzler5: raises to $8
    WSOP08: folds
    HERO: calls $8
    BMWCoupe: raises to $34
    kick_nutz: folds
    dazzler5: folds
    HERO: calls $26


    ----- FLOP -----

    BMWCoupe: bets $55
    HERO: (decision #1) calls $55


    ----- TURN -----

    BMWCoupe: bets $150
    HERO : (decision #2) … wonders if raising is an option?
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    I would probably 3 bet preflop, but that entirely changes the dynamics of the hand.

    As played I like raising flop and betting turn better.
    Flopping quads and boats like its my job

    I think a minraise would be really funny here but then again it's not my money

    if he doesnt have KQ in his range? and folds everything besides AK then raising might be kinda sick here. i probably dont have the balls to do it though.

    bump cuz this turn spot got my head spinning more than any hand I've played in a pretty long time
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    I can't see him 2 barreling here only to fold. This is not a good double spot and I would expect a good reg to know that. I expect him to call light if you raise the turn.

    Seems like a fold because there isn't enough money left, which makes villain committed with AA/Kx and maybe QQ, and makes you not have enough implied odds to call.

    flattin ur 4bets, makin u tilt
    i dont get his turn bet sizing so id probably minraise all in. I'd expect to have the best hand a lot.
    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

    I was thinking this was good but I don't like stacks too much.
