Default WPT Aruba Hand

75/150

4.5k in chips. Have been fairly active and lost a lot of small pots. Have a very aggressive (but not crazy image). Been caught running a big bluff once (no showdown). Have generally mostly just made blind steals/cbets beside the one big bluff I got caught running. Main villain in the hand is a crazy 50 year old bigger Spanish man. He probably is playing around 40/5/4 and has 3 bet a lot (no showdowns). Also I have seen him minreraise with aces once and limp behind two other limpers with aces. In general it would appear he likes to slow play his big hands. What to do?

CO 3k
Button 30k
SB 10k
BB (me) 4.5k


On to the hand. Dealt to Hero: ThTd

CO makes it 400. I have a very strong live tell that he is weak.
Button calls 400.
SB makes it 2300
BB (me): ?????

yeah i don't understand the description either. i think it's a close spot to be in though, and i also think it's relevant the positions of the two limpers and him when he limped behind with two aces. ie - if both limpers are ep and he is button i'm way more inclined to shove here, but if both limpers are ep and he is also ep i think you should fold here. as a default i'd fold because you still have a workable stack, a good structure, a probably soft table in a live event, and it's not clear that this is a +cEV spot.

Unless you think button is trying to induce a squeeze. Ship. He can have 99+ AQ+ here and he might flat or make it like 1400 with AA or KK.

Has his other 3-bets been fairly large (the non-aces ones)?
