I don't like a flop c/r at all unless you're planning on calling down UI.

line looks good so far. Either cap and lead turn, call and lead turn, or just call down and let his overcards/spades draw for free.

He's giving you as little credit for your hand as you're giving him for his. Sure he could have an overpair or A5, but i doubt that's a majority of his range. In fact, you're reverse dominating a lot of his range now.

How is he reverse dominating another hand? Any ace with a better kicker still beats our hero.

If an Ace drops, villain is dominated by two pair.

edit: oops, nevermind. See below.

No you both messed up. An A would counterfeit our hand (assuming villain has an A) since the 5's are paired. For now, though, our two pair beats AK high.

My thoughts:

This is a weird spot because
A) Villian is very aggressive
B) Heros hand is very vulnerable
C) Improvement is tricky as has been said, when I improve I face domination or reverse implied odds.
D) Sucks to be OOP

I'm tempted to c/c the flop and c/r any turn given that villian will continuation bet tenaciously.

I decided to call the 3 bet and c/c any non K turn and c/f the river at the time but I dunno.

Is his aggression high because he finds folds a lot or is just stupid aggressive?

Gotta call down. When you c/r someone, especially in a steal situation it seems like they tend to freak out and spew.
