200nl same villain, same pain.

[ThomasP]

All these hands were played at the same table against the same opponent within 25 mins of each other. The villain is 26/20 w/ a 3b steal of 10-12% and cr flop of 18%. I have the following note on him from a previous session: "nl100 oct08
3bet my btn rse w/ K4s from blinds called my turn bet w/ just a gs on 3 f board and bluff 4th spade on river i call khi flsh (9JQ36)"

Hand1: I presume he is floating here a lot, however, in retrospect I think certainly my cr size could have been smaller say $100 and achieved similar fold equity.

Hand2: I think PF is fine as he 3bets very wide and will fire at boards I hit. I think the flop call is ok, however, am I better of checking the turn back, as he probs won't fold A9,9T,89 type hands, I still have a nut draw and have option at bluffing him on river.

Hand 3: I'm pretty irritated now! I presume he is playing back a lot here a tonne on an A hi board and was reluctant to make it smaller in case he shoved over some draw on basis he has fold equity after seeing me make it 132 and fold previously. I also thought if he did call i still had some equity w/ backdoors. Also w/ his 3 bet stat being so high I removed a lot of aces from his range.

This seems like too much FPS imo. I don't think he is floating you that light on such a dry board in hand 1. Hand 2 is okay if you also do the turn checkraise with your nutted hands, but even then I prefer to just check/fold the turn. Hand 3, when you start to feel annoyed, take a break. You are 3bet bluffing a flop with essentially no equity if you get called. Also, villain can look you up lighter here as well, as it looks a lot like you have a draw to me.

In hand3 it depends what he calls with, I have some equity if he decides to look me up w/ some kind of 7, looks like there are more combos than just 67/78 after he called oop w/ 35s in an earlier hand. Also, if he has something like 88/99 I have outs.

I highly doubt he calls w/ 99/88 or any 7 here.

Move tables, or stop trying to outplay him. I mean hes got you tilt shoving on an A high flop with Qhigh no draw.
