50NL, 3bet pf vulnerable TPTK on flop

[BoozeHound]

Same 48/23/.8 villain as in AK hand, beating up on me so I take a stand pf with position in a blind battle. Fire again or try to get to showdown?

He's probably got nothing. You've got TP albeit a low one. You're probably winning right now but vulnerable.

I'd pot that.

Easy bet. Pot it and see what happens. Does he bluff raise? If he doesnt, fold to a raise, if he does, hmmmmm.....

I think you are ahead here. Like what was said above he's probably got nothing. But I think this hand is all about what kind of read you have on him. It looks like he's pretty aggro pre-flop so this looks like a pretty obvious blind steal. I would pot it unless you've seen him c/r a bunch. If he c/r big you probably have to fold.

Sorry guys, easy bet on the flop, but got min-raised. Meant to cut it off there

That's just the thing, his numbers say passive, but against me he's been aggro. He's either decided to run over me or he's been hot specifically against me, or he gets spewey in bog pots and I've turned weak-tight due to semi tilt (that part is true at this point, at least after c-bets).

put him on some low suited connectors that hit the flop and he thinks you didnt. Probably min raising seeing as you have played weak against him, and he wants to take this down while he is ahead but vulnerable...

If you're going to take control in position here, I think you should raise to $5-$5.50. Laying your loose-passive opponent 2.5 to 1 here just isn't going to do it.

PF is pretty nasty, I would probably bet/fold on the flop. Sometimes I'll check and call anything on most turns/rivers vs. a LAG.
