Default 2/4 Stars - 2 Hands vs ALotOfAction

I am playing with villian on 4-5 tables. He runs around 27/23 and 3 bets, 4 bets, and squeezes a lot.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $4 BB (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

BB ($376.45)
UTG ($1385)
MP ($568.45)
Hero ($398)
SB ($82)

Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $16</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls $16, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>.

Flop: ($38) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $24</font>, Hero calls $24.

Turn: ($86) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $64</font>, Hero calls $64.

River: ($214) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $548</font>, Hero folds...

My plan was obviously to just call him down. I'm sure he capable of a bluff and from past experience he doesn't tend to give up until someone bets back at him. On the same note he might use this logic to trap me into calling a monster.

<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $15</font>, Hero calls $15, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls $15, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $100</font>, UTG folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $390.7</font>

I had folded many times to his 3 bets and 4 bets and I think hes squeezing here a lot and might look my up light because of my line.

3-bet him in hand 1 - also sometimes fold turn(thought not often vs. him) and always fold riv so that's played fine. hand 2 i prefer a fold pf or a 3-bet to the utg, but having gotten here it looks fine. btw i think he sucks.

From my experiences with him I think so too Chewy however I have him over a lot of hands and hes running 6PT/100. It sickens me because he seems to have a huge luck box [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I typically re-raise AQ but I had some sort of reason for calling, I just can't remember.

Reraising AQ (or AK) against an UTG raiser is by no means mandatory IMO.

i agree completely, but i'd rather 3-bet than call with the entire table behind...though if your intention is to call/4-bet i don't mind it as much.

Hand 1 Fold preflop? Cuz even when you hit top pair. He will likely bet you out like he did. (Disclaimer: I suck at cash I am trying to learn [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Hand 2 If he is a known squeezer I don't think he is ever calling you with garbage here.

does anyone know if alotofaction is 2p2? he seems pretty solid imo, maybe a little over aggro, but he's definitely tough. i think both hands are good, i doubt he 3 bets here w/ nething beating AQ like he does, just seems like he's blasting everyone out of the pot (i also know its not his typical 3 bet size too fwiw)

IMO Alotofaction plays on the 0th level of thinking. He thinks only what he has and nothing more. He calls down light a lot and continues to pound hands that I act ridiculously strong in. I have him losing 28BB/100 in my tracker over 1k hands. Saying that I think there are better spots to stack than these to hands.

In the second hand his calling range is freaking huge, but yet includes almost no hands that you are a big favorite against.

calling in the 2nd hand looks like a huge spew. Are you worried at all about the players behind you?
If you are not confident enough to 3bet this lag with AQ then fold and leave the table IMO.
