Here we find TT on the button, villain in the bb is new to the table and new to me, as I did not have any stats on him pop up on my hud. We open the button and get 3bet slightly more than pot. Looking for a line check here against an unknown. Do we just pitch it on the flop? I like a float here with TT ip to reevaluate after his turn action. Does anyone like a raise on the flop? I thought about raising the flop, but felt like I would almost be committing myself to put all the money in the middle with 100bb stacks. I feel like this is reasonable given villain is unknown, just making sure I'm not being too nitty here. I would assume villain recognizes we are strong here when we call pf and call the flop bet ip, but I guess that is a situationally dependent viewpoint. Interested to hear some different opinions here. This may be super standard, but I'm looking to see how we generally approach unknowns. Thanks guys.
