In a 3bet pot I felt this one

Call reraise, check/push turn? Or just 3bet all in (I like the chck/push turn because it adds more bluffs to his range)

With his stats, I push preflop.
Its possible u are beat, but as played I think u should call and check call all-in on turn (let him keep bluffing on turn).

I think pushing flop and calling c/r AI turn are both good option since villian isn't going anywhere and will most likely bet on the turn

I 4-bet pf OOP, but I don't mind trying to hook first so he can hang himself when you hit. However, if you're going to call, then I think the best line needs to be c/c flop, crai turn. As played, call and let him put it in on the turn. If it checks through, get it in on the river.

Did the size of his pf 3-bet scare you? Had you seen this from him before?

And your advice here is ? Please try to make constructive comments, it will help both the OP, and your own thought process.

Villain in this hand is 48/30. He will probably 3bet light a fair amount. This is probably the type of villain that wants to pick up a lot of pots, and wont be pushed around (lol, rounders). Having said this, there's no other card in the deck that can come on the turn that makes me change my mind about putting my entire stack to the middle. IMO, the best to get this is to check to him on the turn, and either c/r AI or call his shove. If he checks behind, Im shoving river for value.

By doing this, you are allowing villain to fire another possible bluff on the turn. In his range are still a set, any pocket pair of 99+, KTo+, and perhaps a weird gutshot. In addition to that, I feel villain will bluff a fair amount aswell. Many of those hands will still bet the turn, but fold to a push on the flop.
