40-80 Borgata K10s vs Tilted Euroraiser

[2handed]

Haven't been playing live midlimits this summer much but made it to AC this week and got a few hands in. Game is running seven handed since two people are away from the table. Villain is a bad european player. My image is tight/aggro.

Important history: Previous hand Villain open limps in in the cutoff, I raise A8 of spades, blinds fold. Flop is 10 9 5 all red, he checks, I bet he folds.
At this point my friend who was standing behind me asks what I had. I stand up and tell him, and then he makes some joke about the hand and we laugh.

As I turn back to the table, Villain is open-raising in an angry sort of way, and I realize he must have overhead some of our exchange (unintentionally on my part). I pick up K10 of diamonds and elect to call (questionable). Both blinds call.

Flop 10 8 8 rainbow: Check, Check, Villain bets, I raise, Fold, Fold, Villain 3bets, I call.

Turn blank, offsuit 4 lets say: Villain bets, I call.

River Q: villain checks, I check.

Should I be 3-betting preflop here to isolate, or perhaps just fold?
Should I valubet the river once he checks?
Should I do something else different?

3-bet preflop. Your description makes it sounds like villain's range is wider than it normally is and he is prone to making mistakes. For both of these reasons, I don't mind putting in a 3rd bet and isolating him. Even though suited, KTs is not a hand I like to see multiway postflop. FWIW, I am folding K9s/QTs/KTo here so this decision is close for me and I don't begrudge anyone who recommends you fold preflop. This spot sounds like it's too good to pass up though.

As played, flop and turn are standard.

I value bet the river. Villain has telegraphed a T to you on the river. KT is the last hand I value bet here because the kicker plays. I am folding to a raise without a read.

IF you decide to play KTs in this spot, it should be for a raise and never for a call, that will also make it easier to play post flop

as played, I would gladly check river behind bc I think your hand is good here almost never

I would fold PF unless you think his range is much weaker due to his angry demeanor, then I would 3 bet. I'd valuebet the river, but I don't play live much FWIW.

I actually like the coldcall here (or, like, fold) oddly enough. 3 betting and getting it hu against a possibly "angry" type with this hand sucks as you'll often be pushed off the best hand or not see a river with your 6 outer etc etc. As played must be river cmon. And why would you say that stuff at the table lol

[2handed]

I coldcalled pre because I don't think this guy is going to be pushed around and I know I am going to have to most likely flop something to win the pot. Usually I am 3 betting most hands against this guy, but I didnt feel that raising gave my hand much protection against him or would buy me any FE, although it may have knocked the blinds out.

Just fold then.

Yeh my logic is flawed on this one, been playing PLO too much and I have gotten in the habit of coldcalling raises in position and not valuebetting thin enough. I suppose I was thinking I had implied odds so when I flop a pair+ so I could get a lot of value. Not betting the river is inconsistent with that idea though.

I've seen AA c/c there, weird guys play live...
