Villians stats: 34/20/4.3 over only 75 hands
My stats 26/22/1.6

I have had a few battles with this player over the last 75 hands or so. I have been open raising a LOT preflop from the button into his blinds. He folded to my 3 bet from UTG after he RR me when he was on the button. We haven't got into a proper confrontation post flop until this hand.

I MAY be perceived as a bit weak post flop by him.

I hate the 3bet fold line here. I think flush draw is well within his range. If your going to make this 3 bet, i think you have to call his all in.

I think the best line is to call the c/r and re-evaluate the turn.

so you put in roughly half your stack with top pair decent kicker only to fold to a shove on like the wettest board ever? add to this your read on villain and i hate it. imo you need to call after taking this line otherwise it doesnt make sense.

another line is folding to his flop reraise if you dont feel like gamboling.

I don't like the 3-bet if I'm going to fold to a push. You've put in ~1/2 your stack and if you're ahead 1/3 times you have to call. Looks like set/draw to me. Small chance he has smaller 10. I probably would'nt have played the hand like you, but as played I probably call and ride the variance train.
