AK TPTK v 18/15/3.2
 

Main villain is 18/15/3 over thousands of hands. I have a 25/23 image at this table. A decent amount of raising but nothing insane. What's our play here?

It really looks like a worse ace.I usually call and revalue on turn.With no face cards i get it in.

Does he give you credit in general, is he up for fancy stuff, any history?
Instaminraising is pretty gay and he probably planned to make some move on any flop, so I'd call (assuming button folded) and c/push any turn.

Not sure, all I know is he is pretty nitty, I do c-bet a lot but I haven't been crazy. I think A4 and A8 definitely are not in his range.

I doubt he's raising the Flop with TPGK very often. And I agree, you won't see A8/A4. So it's basically Air/Flushdraw/Underpair or set. Since there are only 6 combos for sets, I'd be inclined to stack off.

But I wouldn't even blame you for folding the flop if he isn't too liberal in raising cbets.

this is actually a really tough spot.

I guess I call and re-evaluate but just b/c you really dont have enough info at the moment to make a decision for your stack. what does he expect you to do with tptk here?
