Default Quick check up - villain 3-bet you in a co vs button scenario

Villain is playing 22/17 and is 3-betting pretty light. You are playing TAG and no especially history between you.

You open from CO and villain 3-bets from the button, what is you plan with:

A ) 99-JJ
B ) Hands like AJs, KQs and QJs

depends a lot on his postflop play, if hes the type to fire one barrel and then shut down you can call with 77-TT on most flops and fold to further aggression. If he's able to fire 2 barrels after he 3bets i prefer calling with hands like AQ KQs, and c/r allin on a lot of flop and i rather fold 99-77

Okay, that sounds reasonable. When you say c/r all-in often, I presume you also get it in w/o any hit (read pair). Which is the "worst" flop you c/r bluff and fold to a push on? I know this is very general etc but w/e. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

With 100bb stacks, I would recommend just check raising all in whenever you have overcards or any sort of draw or anything.

KvGalen - I like the idea of having a solid read on someone that shuts down after the flop, but I definitely DON'T like the idea of actually playing hands against a seemingly good aggressive player out of position.

Best advice is of course to switch seats/tables. But otherwise I'll tighten up and get a nice conservative table image going and then start 4 betting more with the pocket pairs. I'll smooth call his 3-bet preflop with some big cards, then check-shove some Flops.

You'll quickly get a further read on how lightly he'll call/shove your 4bet.

on a lot of flops when you have overcards, but not with AQhh on 89Tddd for example.
