Villain in this hand is a very agro semi reg running 26/23/5 with a 12% 3 bet over 550 hands. I realise my hand is the nuts here but im wondering whats the best line to get max value, I feel I lost value as I didnt properly take into account villains tendencies and played the hand as I would against a far nittier oppenent.

So would the best line be to 4 bet pre to $22-$25ish/get it in, or to flat his 3 bet and raise his c bet to $34ish, I prefer the latter line as I feel he'll shove very lightly, thoughts?

villain in this hand is basically unknown, playing 33/22/2 over 20 hands, but seems donkish from what i've seen. My question is about my river bet sizing, when he checks to me I have the best hand nearly everytime and due to his CS characteristics I'm wondering whether a large almost pot, or even an over bet would be good here rather than a standard $30 bet, all the draws missed and the likelihood he'll look me up with a worse ace or even kk-1010 is high thinking my bet looks bluffy, thoughts?

Hand 1

It says UTG 3 bet you? I'm sure opp is one of the blinds surely?
If it is then yeah QQ would be in my stack off range & I would 4bet get it in. If I want to be tricky raising the flop is fine to.

Hand 2.

I think the std bet sizing is fine. His stats are over a small sample and he could just as easily have AQ/AK and be trying to induce a bluff from a missed draw on the river.

Hand 3.
Yeah that sucks. Given his low af yeah I prolly fold to.

[Fnord]

Hand 1: Bet the turn, be happy to get it in. (re)raising pre-flop is probably ideal.
Hand 2: $25 on the river
Hand 3: Fold, Ni Han

[meeloche]

1) 4 bet and get it in QQ is much harder to play than AA or KK. plus you don't have blockers.

2) I guess he could c/c AQ here but I'd definitely still bet. Especially with all the draws missing those are great hands to rep here. I'd bet 36-40, you want it to look like a bluff not a value bet.

3) That sucks but yeah you have to fold.

[Luke999]

Does anybody ever check back the river in hand 2?

[Silly String]

1. Let me get this straight. He limp/re-raised you? I don't think QQ is the nuts at all. I don't mind this line.
2. I value town him with $25 here.
3. His insta-push is meant to look bluffy and Nits don't semi-bluff the turn. He obviously did not have to think about his actions and pre-determined them. Me thinks a set. Good fold.

[WildBobAA]

Hand 1: The converter is messed up and lists the BB as UTG. But anyway, I would definitely 4-bet this vs this opponent.

Hand 2: $25 on riv

Hand 3: Sucks but the flop was 4-ways so it's a fold.

[WildBobAA]

Does anybody ever check back the river in hand 2?

I would vs certain opponents (huge nits that I know would only call me with hands I beat and would check the river with AK or AQ), but vs this opponent, no.

I agree with WildBob. I'm sure with AtotheC101's aggro image he chks this bhd a lot vs Tag regs that will give him a chance to hang himself with missed draws. I don't give this villain the ability to c/c this with any such intention. You're beating a lot more than beats you in a c/c situation here on the river.

[bode]

Hand 1 calling or 4betting are both fine. Calling is obv better if hes going to cbet like a monkey or fire multiple barrells, but i think as played you need to raise the flop. Your going to get action from worse because the board is so draw heavy.

hand 2 i vbet the river for $30-35

hand 3 is played fine.

[WildBobAA]

I would vs certain opponents (huge nits that I know would only call me with hands I beat and would check the river with AK or AQ), but vs this opponent, no.

"hands I beat" = hands that beat me obv

[ATOTHEC101]

Yeah the converter messed up, in hand 1 it is the BB that 3 bet me pre, not utg at all.
