Hi guys, so villain has been raising the flop lots in 3bet pots IP. I think he is the type of player that would raise more his 66 rather than his 78hh; would raise more his T9dd and call his QT, etc. And he´s of course raising his monsters (KJ+). So when facing a raise I am either against a very weak range in general (if not air) or the nuts.

Just a reminder, this is 250bbs+ poker and when facing a raise from him with our hand, I think there will be 2 main scenarios:

A) I flat and he will see 5 cards most of the time. He will have the betting lead having paid good/excellent price for whatever equity he has. I also will be forced to decide for 200bbs+ on turn/river with potentially not awesome runouts.

B) I 3bet and he will either peel/shove his nuts and stronger draws and fold his air.

I´m interested to know what do you guys think of:

1) having a check calling range in 3bet pots (deepstacked) as strong as AA here.

2) going for 2 streets of value instead of 3. (or bluff 2 streets instead of 3)

Sadly these 2 points above could be somewhat exploitable vs good opponents, but I think we could still do different things on turn+river that could make up for it. i.e. overbetting turn/river

My idea when checking the flop is basically having a range that could very well include some strong hands (AA+) some medium strenght hands (i.e. K6s, Jx) and some weaker hands that are always bet folding this flop (i.e. 55) along with some air that will delayed c-bet on turn.

Peace.
