This is probably a pretty standard spot for the higher limits. I think the way I played my hand was fine, but it got me to thinking more about what I'd do with different hands.
I know villain is a regular from some random datamining I've done lately. However, I'm fairly certain we've never been on the same table before now.
After 22 hands my stats are 23/9/4 (only hand I showed was a flopped top set stacking an overpair). My attempt to steal at this point is 40%. Obviously small sample sizes, but I'm assuming he's running PT and know he's multi-tabling. Villain is running at 19/16/2 on this table after 31 hands.
1st hand: He 3bets my button open from the BB when I have AKs (sb folded). This is the first he's done it, so I opt to just call and see a flop. He leads a KKT rainbow flop, and we get it all in on the flop. I hold up against KQo. I take note that he's willing to 3bet with this hand after little/no history.
2nd hand: I raise OTB, and he folds after SB folds.
3rd hand: I raise OTB. The seat between us is empty now, and he 3bets from the SB. BB folds. I have now raised his blinds every time it's folded to me OTB since hand #1. *EDIT- 100bb effective stacks. I raised $2, he 3bet to $7 (same size as hand #1)*
I'd chuck anything marginal here, but of the more premium hands what's my play: AA or KK, QQ, JJ, AK, AQ? (Options being call, 4bet, or 4bet-shove)
Sorry if this is noobish. I'm not looking to start getting FPS, but I think I need to start giving villains (specifically more aggro regulars) a little rope here and there. I'd play it pretty straightforward against a donk, nit, etc.
Edited stack sizes and raises for hand 3.
