400nl - Re-raised pot with 54s

[Nick Royale]

MP is a 25/20 tag, raising alot preflop but he's generally really weak vs 3-bets.

Villain is 39/12/2, wtsd 27% w$sd 47% over 4k hands. He's a reg and bad. Doesn't seem to 3-bet often preflop (not 3-betting AQ/JJ here). Cold calling too much, not really sure what he'll call my 3-bet with though. AQ/JJ, mid PPs and maybe sometimes some suited broadways/low PPs, but it's kinda up for you to decide what you think.

Villain checks, Hero?


Bet and get it in? If we're checking what do we do if he bets for example 125 on a blank turn? How about betting small (85ish) and pushing most any turn?

I know it's hard to give a line for any given scenario, but some general thoughts on how to play this hand is appreciated.

check/fold - mid pairs are well within his range and he's never ever folding them, but AT and AJ type hands are as well which prob check down

Fwiw I don't think he's calling AT preflop, maybe AJ but that might be pushing it imo.

110.

i prefer bet/calling. if he c/cs, i am shoving a lot of turns when he checks.

If you check this flop, you're [censored] on the turn if he bets.

I think bet/call is pretty terrible - you have terrible equity against his range of hands that he shoves over a bet.

I'd rather bet/fold. I think he folds a ton of hands you're behind...

I check behind and take it from there.

This is incorrect. You have great equity against his shove range given the pot odds. Against a range of TT-AA you have 37.63% equity. Add in AKs (suited to avoid it being weighted too combinatorically heavy) and you have 42.37% equity. The pot will be laying you roughly 2:1 if you bet and he shoves.

I prefer bet/call the flop for about 130. Shove any turn if he calls.
