AA blind battle vs. lagtard
 

Villain is 50/25/2.3 - 350
After I 3-bet the turn I'm pretty much committed unless I see another queen or club...correct?

um, i could be wrong, but i think AA is only bullet proof before the flop. what worse hand do you think is minraising flop, calling your 3-bet, and calling your turn bet?

Re: AA blind battle vs. lagtard
 

Yeah, this is tough 200bb's deep.

I can't see a problem with any street though. I might flat calls the flop raise, but Once you 3-b the flop, you have to play the rest of the hand as you did. River is push or c/f cuz c/c sux, so yea I think it's fine if you 3-b the flop like this

Completely agree. Any advice on how I should have played it?

AQ, KQ, QJ, T9, 96, 76, any flush draw

Re: AA blind battle vs. lagtard
 

I guess you could call his flop rz and b/f turn is the other option. If you flat call flop, do NOT check turn oop.

this is how Id play it, doesnt make it correct however

You're kidding right? Look at villains stats. Villain takes this line with any queen, any flush draw, T9. Thats a huge range, and this is an easy value town. I might check river to induce a bluff though, as thats a pretty safe card.

Re: AA blind battle vs. lagtard
 

played well on all streets

Re: AA blind battle vs. lagtard
 

against this villain you are going to lose some/win some...

its thin, but still +ev imo

Exactly because of villain's stats I do not like this line. He is not a complete donk that just calls a lot and never raises, he has 25PFR. Yes, fine, he can be min-raising the flop with pretty much anything, but he is not calling that 4bet with a club draw ...

Personally I don't like defining my hand, so I would not 4bet the flop. Yes, he might be getting away cheaply with drawing to his flush, but I am extracting value from when he misses and from a hand like AQ, KQ.

The way it was played I'm getting stacked off to any random two pair or set and I am rarely getting AQ/KQ to call me down.

So to sum up, I would call his flop re-raise and re-evaluate turn. If he checks I'm pretty sure I have the best hand, if he bets hard I'd be a bit worried but probably call.
