PF - raise more. more like 2k. with the antes, you're giving him good odds.

and not based upon playing him, but reading his posts and thinking he's a well respected poster capable of aggression on the bubble,

Betgo's flop - re-raise range: 50% of the time KsX, XsXs, QJ, 9T, KT, AJ, Txs. 5% he slow played QQ AA JJ and 35% of the time he has air. I think he has air or is drawing often enough that you could push here. second choice is fold. calling is awful.

Preflop is fine

I prolly fold, though its close, because a lot of his range is KsJx etc type hands. And i think he reraises AK and AQ preflop along with JJ QQ and AA. So its actually pretty close.

Preflop is fine and better than 3.6X

I would fold as played but check behind this flop at least a % of the time and more often vs Betgo.

Because you don't give up easily/are tricky/will make our life miserable by not letting us control the potsize with a hand that has decent but marginal showdown value

I check this flop everytime. call a turn bet and usually call riverbet. They put you on KxKs everytime and push you off it with 2 bets.

I check this flop almost every time and every time against anyone decent. call a turn bet and usually call riverbet.

The only thing betting this flop does is allow him to check/raise you (sometimes with air? dunno what you're capable of betgo) and push you off the better hand.

You have showdown value, check and call him down.
