Default Hand versus aggro opponent #1

I played some with villain before, 2 months or so ago. Back then he was very, very aggressive and reluctant to give up pots. He was constantly 3-betting, 2-barreling and stuff. It doesn't seem that that has changed, I've just played 50 or so hands and he's running at 30/25 with an infinite AF. I've 3-betted him twice in the last couple of rounds and I have got the pots. I also picked up some pot with a cbet when he just called me pre. I really felt that he was getting frustrated with me. Like it? Hate it?

Hate it because he may have a hand or may decide he's getting too good odds with some of the more marginal hands he has.

Hate it. If he is getting frustrated, he will call you down light aswell.

This is bad, particularly if you havent seen him 4bet before. Also, if you've been 3betting him very loosely, you have established an image that you want to take advantage of with good hands, not junk like this.

This was one of the spots where I really, really felt that I would pick up the pot with a shove, and I followed my instincts. I see why you don't like it and agree with your arguments. But I guess sometimes you got to follow the gut-feeling, and it obviously isn't a play I do regularly. So I can't hate on it, I guess it would be better if I held Ax instead, there I would almost always have a decent equity if he indeed called me.

Elaborate, with Ax I block combinations of AA + and AK, AQ, AJ. I also have a decent 30% equity against pairs below aces. So I don't see how this play could be worse with Ax.

Fwiw I don't think he would have got it in with suck a wide range, in fact I think it would be much smaller, giving me even better FE.

5-betting light isn't good...

that calling range seems pretty insane, you said he was aggressive, not terrible. your description of him kinda gave me the idea that he was compotent.

if that's his calling range, you needed to note in the OP that he was braindead.

Yeah,, that wasn't the point. He's decent and I really don't think the range would be like that, as I stated. I think it would be more like TT+, AQs+, AKo. But still it would be better to execute the play with Axs then 64s (better equity + blocking combinations). Wich was what I was trying to show.
