$100 bvb bbl 2-4 minraised with A3o

[Scotty_12]

Unknown villian (rare bc I datamine the games 24/7) Raises only get called when way behind preflop, dont like folding -felt I could proceed cautiously on A high flops if he puts more $ into the pot, but that he would play bad enough postflop to take this away. Also he can easily be minraising ATC and not interested in getting involved w/o hitting the flop hard. The flop is obv perfect for my hand without it being T33, and I can get away if he c/r and shutdown if called. Thoughts?

I dunno if it's different up there but in this spot, I'm getting checkraised every time if I bet.

I think if I'm betting its because I'm snap calling a crai

depending on the player, I'd shove PF a lot. I like the bet on the flop.

The donks I play will autobet a paired flop like this. So it sets off alarm bells when they don't. Obviously, sometimes I'm ahead. Can you help me work out how I figure this out?

This is the kind of spot we're often in, and I struggle with it. I'm doubting I'm alone, so if you can explain your thinking for wanting to get it in here, that would really help.

Your M is around 8 and i think a 3 is way to weak to shove in that spot cuz ul be dominated by a x almost always and never a huge favorite.

I think as played looked pretty good

if villian is Blue Lipton i push preflop because he is addicted to the bubble minraise when the bb=400 (haha, i know you dont play with him).

i think i probably fold preflop just because i hate this hand/spot.

We only beat a bluff, and are behind to alot of bluffs.

I consider this flop bet for semi-value as he can have ATC here, I just dont want to give him a free look at one of the ATCs on the turn ...if he had me beat pre and i face resistance, then I have no problem letting it go, and I might even fold out some better hands with the bet
