Default First time in a while where I really didn\'t know what to do

Normally when I post hands, I just want to hear others thoughts on different lines; but, here I'm just really confused.

NL400 HU

Villian seems like he's getting really frustrated with my 3-bets. After a while he started to min-4bet me; at first I figured it was a big hand but then I started to realize that his min-bets tended to be bluffs. So I started to call his min 4-bets and I'd take it down on any flop that didn't have an Ace or King (eg- he wouldn't bluff unless those cards were there).

Ok, so then he started to 4-bet bigger (to 108) each time, and I noticed that he only did this with decent hands; I have yet to call one of these bigger 4-bets.

Effective Stack: 700.00

Villian raises to 12, Hero reraises to 36 with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Villian reraises to 108, Hero?

I feel like if I reraise I let him play perfectly? Thoughts at this point? Call? reraise?

Ok so I called.

Flop-- 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 10[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Hero checks, Villian bets 250, Hero?

If I push, do you think it's an OK assumption to think that he might fold AK no diamond?

How did you know his bigger 4-bets were with decent hands if you never called one?

ohhh ya i wasn't sure if i should expand on that.

i went by the reasoning of:

since his min-4bets are bad hands and his calls are a huge range, then his big 4-bets (which are less frequent) are prolly bigger hands.

for if he has a weaker hand, then he is much more likely to min-4bet or simply call.

I think he calls you every time with AK no diamond.

I agree that this is a fairly tough spot.

Repopping preflop once he makes it $108 seems OK to me.

some donk ain't folding TPTK after he puts 1/7 of his stack in pf

you said his smaller bets tended to be bluffs, and his flop bet was a slight overbet, which means your hand is no good here, yeah? Or did I misinterpret?

easy fold imo

guy has AK no diamond most prob, hence why hes betting large on the flop to protect hs hand

even if get it all in, your almost certainly never far ahead if u are.

i think folding yields most profit in the long term
