Opponent seems like a fairly aggressive tagg. He 3-bets me fairly often, and so far has fired on both the flop and turn after rags flopped in these situations. Is this a good strategy to use against this type of player?
Also, he paused for about 10 seconds before finally calling my turn raise, and thus far hadn't shown any silly showdown tendencies.

Looks good, I think he's gonna look you up here though. On a blank river, you might need to give up.
After this hand, stop raising the flop and pop the turn with just about anything with draw or showdown value until he stops auto-2-barreling.

I was probably going to give up if a blank fell on the river, but once the spade hit, I decided to fire once more.

If you're just really getting aquainted, I like firing the last round just to show that you'll follow through.

raise the flop. You have a gutshot and overacard. if you hit make the straight he won't realise and he'll pay you off with a decent hand. if you miss check and fold the river if you don't improve.
in this hand since you raised the turn then so bet the river. But it's odd toraise the river and not the flop with a FD. I might even fold the flop a€nd wait for a better chance.
if he;s 3 beting you frequently out of the SB then you have to teach him to respect your bets. Even if you lose you gain respect points. Fnord?

I don't have a gutshot on the flop. I have king high and some tainted pair outs. I'm calling mostly to bluff-raise the turn because he has a very weak range even after he bets both the flop and turn in this situation.
Also, turn raises command more respect than do flop raises, which is why I want to raise the turn here.
