not running a HUD but he seemed like a TAGG .. although he seen me make a real donk move (vs another player) a few hands before where UTG raised to 1 and i pushed over and he repopped and i called his all in with AQo v KK and hit the A. and than a few hands we had a battle where i took half his stack .. now this where i basically was lost, couldnt tell if it was a monster or not.....

If you are calling preflop here, you are assuming he is 3bet bluffing with a decent frequency. So on a flop like this, you obv can't fold. Given stack sizes check/raising this flop is terrible spew. Even at 100bb, I wouldn't like c/raising this flop, as you have like the bottom of your value range, and we can't expect him to stack off with much worse, other than flush draws, 99 (unlikely in his range).

this times a million. like it's really important to understand that this is the case (and why).
bet sizing isn't really concerning 'cause if villain is aware enough to know that he doesn't need to bluff this dry of a board in a 3bet pot more than 1/2 PSB, then he's aware enough to know that he shouldn't vbet JJ+ more either.

Why cant we just check-bomb this flop? I think the pot is big enough at this point to justify protecting it. Theres lots of over cards in his range, what are you going to do if you check/call and a broadway shows up on the turn? Even another club devalues your hand, as you have no blocker.
Theres not a better flop you can ask for besides one containing another Ten. Just get it in, you have no way of telling if youre beat or not. if he shows up with QQ or something owell thats variance for you.

b/c his range for stacking off here 170bb deep creates such an equity disadvantage that we should value that fact over some pseduo-bs idea of protecting our hand here.

If we c/raise this flop, and he shows up with a better hand, that is hardly variance. That is spew. That is money lost that a better player wouldn't have lost in this spot, which means you are making a mistake.
Simply put, this is going to be a tough situation to play correctly readless. Even with reads, it's not going to be an ideal spot by any means.
If we check/raise this flop, he is only going to stack off with a hand that is at worse flipping with us. And when we are behind we have 9%ish equity. Hardly an ideal spot.
Sure, the hand is only going to get more difficult when we c/c, and he bets the turn, but c/calling the flop is clearly the best play (even if it's difficult). On the turn it's going to come down to (1) If the turn card hits his range, (2) his 2barreling frequency in a 3bet pot, (3) hands in his value range, and (4) pot odds.

if I bet this flop as the pf 3bettor, I am continuing on the turn with 100% of my range (I don't bet this flop every time though)
my value range is A2s, JJ+,XcYc and I'll probably bet 60% pot
what cards are you calling on the turn other than a T? I mean Ace probably hits my flush draw range, but a king or queen doesn't help me much
Are you calling any low non-club?

So if we are worried about being against an overpair, why did we call preflop in the first place? I just dont see how you can take a passive line here, on this flop and when the pot is so big aleady.
OP seriosly just fold TT next time if youre not going to be comfortable continuing on flop like this.

If our assumption is that he is 3betting a wide enough range that calling TT preflop is +EV (which is probably is given bvb, etc), then we are comfortable continuing on this flop. We just want to continue in a way that is +EV against his range. C/shoving so he can fold his bluffs, and only continue with JJ+ just isn't the manner to do it. I don't think I like a check/raise even 100bb deep, let alone 170bb deep. That's just letting him continue with only better hands, and fold all worse.
And your statement "if you are worried about being against an overpair, then why did you call preflop" is just ignorant. Overpairs are a part of his range, obviously. However, preflop we felt there was enough other worse hands that calling preflop was correct. Just because we made the call preflop doesn't mean that now we have assumed he doesn't have an overpair, and now play TT like the nuts. We have just assumed that overpairs were not the only hand in his range. We have to maximize against his range. And c/raising so we stack off and lose to his overpairs, and let him fold his worse hands is dumb. Simple as that.

stacks if you're saying c/c this flop is the right line, what is the next play here? c/c calling the turn? clubs, overpairs, overs, are obv in his range and i just felt like being oop is just to hard to play this. c/c down to the river i think isnt +ev. there are so many cards in his range that make the turn and river impossible to play this because he is betting 100% of the time on the turn/river and only a 10 satisifies me im ahead here.
basically in all of this, if we c/c the flop what is the next play?
sortry im drunk when i read this lol...

Stacks I understand what you are saying. However I feel that in this situation we are going to get owned a lot, especially against better players. This is a difficult spot no matter what line you take. How do you fee about leading at this flop though?

If he's betting the flop, turn, and river, with a 100% frequency, then depending on his 3bet frequency, and the hands in which he does it with, we would be calling 3 streets.
However, I doubt this is the case. THe majority of the people don't 3bet light, then barrel off numerous streets. Even when it is somewhat evident that we don't have an very strong range. Here, depending on his 3bet frequency, we can very likely have TT-AA, where we might 4bet QQ-AA some % of the time, while calling some of the time as well.
I doubt the majority of villains are going to barrel the turn and river attempting to take us off of our overpairs. I think, depending on the villain, we can make some pretty easy folds on the turn or river, depending on stack sizes and pot odds. Us being 170bb deep also probably makes it unlikely he will barrel, even though us being deep probably makes it more likely we will fold to a bet/bet/shove line.
As far as leading the flop, I dislike it quite a lot. It's seems to me as another way of letting him fold worse, and continue with better. His 3betting range is likely pretty polarized being this deep. He either has nut overpairs that he wants to stack off with on this board, or right now he has either air or overcards. If we lead, he folds his air (which we beat), as well as his overcards the majority of the time (which we beat). He calls with all overpairs obv.
We have a somewhat marginal hand here, I don't see why everyone wants to deviate from the standard line of check/calling against a polarized range with a marginal hand. C/c, check/evaluate, probably folding the turn with a somewhat decent frequency.

Leading flop is so terrible, worse than c/r - which is uber terrible to begin with.
c/c flop, let's see what he does on the turn.
When it comes to the turn, would we rather call a 2nd barrel on a blank (say 7h), or an Ah?

i lol'ed a bit here. if he's betting 100% of the time on the turn/river, then c/r'ing ANY of our value range is super dooper retarded.
and has been mentioned, considering a calling the 3b pre and then c/f on this flop is super dooper retarded for two reasons: 1) he's betting his whole range here, so if we though we were good enough against his range pre to consider, then we're still good after he bets and 2) there is practically no such thing as a better flop for our hand than this one, except for one that contains a ten, so unless you called pre for set value, there's no way you can fold on this flop.

lol gtfo, everyone cbets too much in 3bet pots - there's no way you can expect a guy like this as OP described to check an ace here. What are you going to get value from by leading and how would you feel about being raised?

above my level but i think if op was that scared of villain having an over pair he should have folded pre-flop. I'm not sure why the c-bet gave him so much concern as it is super standard.
