Bet fold seems pretty standard. If he calls the flop... I don't mind a turn bet at all.

fwiw, i know that bet-fold might not be as +EV as other lines. However, the problem with check-calling on the flop and then check folding or check calling the turn is that our hand is pretty transparent and there's not alot of A high hands that we play this way (although this might be a good way to play AQ).

and given that the villain is very aggressive, i believe he's capable of bluffing us off w a worse hand.

I can't think of many hands that I check the flop with after pfr-ing on a board that has a high-card.

Obviously I don't like the flop, but I don't believe it is correct to just give up. I would bet ~30$ and fold to a raise. If he just calls, I would not fire a non J turn.

Dan when you say "relatively active" you mean like he's gonna peel the flop here w/ 88 or he's just calling the r/r w/ AQ type of active? Obv important as you end up folding the best hand sometimes

I think it depends cause normally I'd say easy bet/giveup if called. I think a more interesting question is after you bet and are called what are you doing on [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] turns?

I wouldn't c/c the flop unless you've got some history to work with. Even then wtf he could get QQ to showdown and we'd be kicking ourselves for not betting the flop

Wow. I know I am gonna come across like a prick here, but this is why calling 3-bets in position can be profitable with a wide range.

Since this is a relative unknown, we will take meta and balancing out of the equation here.

AK probably 4-bets at least 50%+ time preflop, so pull some of that out of his range. AQ usually won't raise this flop. AJ is unlikely (we have JJ, LDO). TBH, I don't expect any aces to raise as the A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] is on the board. Generally, KK and QQ don't raise either.

I would expect his range to be a discounted subset of sets (they won't always raise), bare flush draws, a pair w/FD, 45, small subset of 56 type hands, and midPPs/rags as a bluff with effective air.

I would like to see what everyone's lines are against this range. Assume we know he doesn't have any A, KK, or QQ, how do you play it?

Edit: added pair+FD
