my first guess would be AxQ [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] or AxJ [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

ya this is why id probably shove, but if hes decent or if he always min-raises he has a low flush or a set.

dont you think hed just shove those hands?

you are ahead of PPs with a [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in them, but thatd be kinda weird, this could definitely be sets/flushes, although i feel like sets probably shove too

He hasn't done any thing donkish. But, it's live. I haven't played a hand with him. So, no real good reads.

FWIW. I put him on TT or AQc or AJc.

How do I treat frequent 3-bettor regulars on my left (+ 1-3 seats from me). NL50 6max.

1) Do I start to light 4 bet them?
2) Do I start to call and float (OOP [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img])?
3) Do I start to call and check/raise?
4) Do I start to raise less?
5) Do I switch the table?

You can do all of the above. The easiest method is just to stop opening light.

Then in position you can start calling them lighter.

OOP you can start 4-betting lighter (note: 4-bets usually commit you 100bbs deep).

And obviously you can table select.

You can start calling OOP and check/raise more. I don't have much experience with this, and it's going to make things a lot more difficult for you.

Personally I don't really like c/c the turn. I'd rather b/f, or c/f.

The reason: There really aren't many draws on the flop that have missed. So, you aren't really checking to induce a bluff. So, when you check he will always bet his flush (I doubt he has anything else here that ever beats us). HOwever, he will check behind a lot of hands we beat that will call another bet some % of the time.

So, I think when you bet you get your money is good more often then c/c.
