Reads: I'm new at the table. Villain is data-mined as "ultra-aggressor" on my PT when this hand plays out... something like 36/15/3 with steals attempted 33.33% of the time (all this over 200+ hands). I think his range is very wide here, including his calling range since he is IP vs. an unknown.

3 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Button raises to $0.35</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $1.2</font>, BB folds, Button calls.
<font color="blue"> I 3-bet since it'll take the pot down a good amount of the time and force villain to reconsider steal range. If I'm called I have pretty good implied odds if I spike my set in a RR pot. </font>

<font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $2</font>, Button calls.
<font color="blue">I bet flop because I'm very likely to have the best hand, and if I check/face a bet I won't know where I'm at. Plus I have momentum and there's decent FE here. If he raises me, I'll give consideration to a push and to a fold. A serious raise probably lets me fold correctly. If he just calls I plan to push any rag (non-diamond low card) as I feel high-cards make a big part of his range. </font>

Too aggressive? Too stupid? Standard? Comments/Praise/Flame would be wonderful.
