5/10 vs kmoney, explain something to me
 

he is 24/21, 25wtsd, 47wwsf 5.28/4.69/2.82./2.20 AF over 40k hands. he really doesnt get out of line that much.

why is this bad? i think his calling range is way wider than his 3betting range. i think i am a dog to his 3bet range, but can still get more value by raising than calling his cbet.

I can't convince myself about the flop c/r here. I suppose he continues with KJ and other K+pair hands, but I can't see getting much value out of anything worse than AK, if we build the pot now.

I think I prefer a lead, but I don't know how often I expect my hand to be good if the money goes in.

Maybe just playing bluff catcher would be best.

So I guess I have a few problems with it:
1) He can represent a very very strong range here, while ours is much more limited. So he may put you on a bluff/semibluff, and he has a ton of leverage to "rebluff".
2) I think we get smooth called on the flop by the nuts and top two a lot, and sometimes by sets, which would leave you in a rough spot on the turn.
3) I think we fold out almost everything we beat, aside from a few hands that are drawing pretty live. (how many Kxs combos do you think he opens with? is he really gonna make a hero calldown with one pair on this board?)
bleh I'm rambling in this post, hopefully that makes sense.

Jfish you're thinking is fine. Need more info/reads to know whether it's the best line though.

I see dudes do this with JJ.....

i hate having hands pretty well exactly on the cusp of easy stackoff/easy fold. i think its the c/r thats our problem. yes it looks like the obvious play, but, i think it might not be the best one unless he's 3betting light here, or bluffing the turn too much if he calls flop and we check it to him.

and, like always, don't make a big move on somebody if you dont have reactions ready to his potential responses, unless the trouble responses are rare (though this time you might be off the hook, if you think his 3bet here is infrequent)

i like a lead also, but i dont see why are range is much more limited...i think you can CR flop with Aj also... J9 if hero always 3bet/folds AJ etc

the only hands we cant rep are KK.. JJ and TT are in our range but discounted, as is KQ and KT
