Only have 40 hands on villian but seems very solid (21-17-8). Steal % is 30
I feel like I played this really poorly but not sure the best way to not walk myself into this mess. My idea was to not help build the pot after the flop raise since I don't want to play for stacks here but I feel there is a decent chance my hand is good against his range until the river card. Where is the best place to apply pressure here or dump this hand?
