Bet/calling sucks.
Bet/folding sucks.
c/r sucks
c/c sucks

oh i just bet/call, he might push with worse, and i don't think any other option is good. and i think giving up on big pots out of sheer fear is a great way to go from a big winner to a marginal one.

I would bet/fold here. Villain pushing with worse strikes me as highly unlikely, but I'm also not willing to put someone on AA or KK every time they flatcall a 3bet.

I recommend this fully aware that bet/folding is considered a fate worse than death on this forum.

How much do you bet and what's your plan for the what turns if he calls?

I'd personally bet 9000 because my standard postflop bet heads up is 1.5x my preflop raise, but if Hero has a standard flop bet size which is identifiable to Villain, I'd bet that. If he calls, my plan would be to spike an A or Q on the turn and/or check/fold.

Assuming your image is what it normally. This looks a lot like a trap and I c/f. If that wasn't the case I just bet call.
Also I think c/f and bet call are the only reasonable options unless you think he is calling three bets really light and betting whenever checked to than I guess you could crai.

vs. a "good" player (i.e. a non-unknown that people think is good but who is always obviously trapping here) I would probably c/f. vs. an unknown I lean to bet/call.

i vote check/fold.

A major reason I'm willing to put in another 9K here is that I don't think there's a great deal of difference between having 26K and 17K here with these blinds, and these other stacks at the table, whereas if we succeed in taking down the pot with a continuation bet we'll have more than twice as many chips as anyone at the table and be ready to dominate.
