3/6: Reeks of a bluff, but can I find a call here?

Villain is a TAG multitabling 2+2er, 20/16 or so, pretty aggro postflop. I find it hard to put him on any sort of hand that beats me (given the pf limp) other than 22. I really think he raises AA/KK/AK pf, and I can't really think of any sort of any hand with a deuce that he limps PF (except A2s).

Edit: My image is probably on the looser side, but I haven't 3-barreled (or hell, even 2-barreled) a lot this session, so when I lead both the flop and the turn into 2 opponents he can probably put me on a biggish hand.

Hmm, [censored], I totally discounted that he could have been on some sort of missed spade draw. And he could have possibly put me on that as well and decided to bluff me off what he perceives to be K-hi. F me to tears, I'm thinking more and more that this wouldn't be such a bad call...

No wonder I am never listed in those "best players at 3/6" lists [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Any rationale?

if he's 20/16, what is he possibly open limping with?

You prefer checking? Or just a bigger bet?

He's raising that flop bet alllllllll day with a set or A2. So on the river you're beat by AK or KK (which he doesn't have). I feel like AK both raises preflop and raises the flop, so...

bigger bet definitely. I bet 18 to build the pot/protect my hand.

As played, I'm not really sure. His play is so incosistent that I'm tempted to call here. It's close either way.

iirc trips > 2pair

I will have to check the hand chart, I might be wrong...
