I re-raised aggro button steal. Now What?
 

This guy was 20/16 and a reg. I had 14,000 hands on this guy. He might be 2+2. He constantly raised the button especially when they it was folded to him and was quite aggro on this table.

I felt there was a good chance he was on a steal and would fold, if he called then if I hit an A or T on a dry board then I would probably be good.

What do you do on the flop now he calls and we missed?

Bet about 17 or so.

I forgot to add that my image was pretty LAG. I had a hot streak of cards and over the first 20 hands I was 58/20/4 but after 50 hands I was 38/14/3.

pretty standard spot though i'd rather do it with a less trouble hand.

I typically bet out as he is folding a large part of his range on that flop providing you havent been too aggro.

I know it sounds spewy but c/r can often be good here, obviously not as standard but still good imo

make it tiny bit more pre($13.5) since oop.

Seems like a decent amount for a continuation bet. Let's talk about turn play if he flat-calls. Say a trey falls.. Dare we two-barrel for the rest of our stack? I'm leaning towards just shutting down, but can't help but ponder other possibilities to get this guy off 88 or 99.

If you don't want to cbet a really dry flop like this, than don't 3 bet him preflop in the first place.

just do whatever you would do with AA

Ok. Thats a fair point and thats what I did. When he called i wanted to puke and I guess he must have a hand. However he is a regular and my image was pretty damn loose so he could be trying to float me. Do we simply c/f or try to take the pot away on the turn?
