villan unknown TAG 20/15/2 (datamined hands, can't remember how many, probably 400 or something)
1st orbit at the table, a couple of tight players to my left, so i have been liberal with my opens, have opened Button, CO and now MP, i just knew one of the TAGs was gonna 3bet me or call my raise
i thought this was the sort of boards people love to playback at, but i had to bet to protect my hand and i'm OOP etc.
i was half expecting a raise, but he made such a gay raise i thought he was probably bluffing. didn't really like calling this OOP and didn't want to fold so i thought i had to turn my hand into a bluff (semibluff if he calls/bluff if he shoves).
what would you guys do, cos i don't like bet/3betting with marginal hands very much on these kind of boards, but i couldn't think of a better option.
