Villain is a heavy loser at 100nl over 10k hands. Likes to play the 200bb tables and buy in full. His pre-flop range is weak/wide. His pfr is a staggering 3%, and history shows that this is exclusively JJ+/AK unless he's stealing from button or small blind, when it may extend to AQ and other pairs. I've been 3-betting a lot more over the last few sessions, but his hud-stats probably show me with a 3-bet of something more like 2.6%

His fold to 3-bet is 25%, i guess that means he calls the pairs. He 4-bets aces sometime, but never kings.

His fold vs cbet is high - 75%, but that's an artifact of his vpip of 20 and playing fit or fold.

So, this hand his range is looking like JJ/QQ/KK/AA. So, 3 combinations of JJ, 3 of QQ, 6 of KK, 1 of AA. I don't think he's folding or raising any of these hands on this board. I'm curious about best flop line here. If he's ever going to fold KK then I guess I should check.

I also wonder what merit there is in simply shoving pre-flop, he's gotta call that range....

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (8 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

Hero (BB) ($139.40)
UTG ($198.80)
UTG+1 ($100)
MP1 ($219.30)
MP2 ($101.90)
CO ($81.85)
Button ($107.60)
SB ($213.70)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A, A
UTG raises to $5, 6 folds, Hero raises to $15.50, UTG calls $10.50

Flop: ($31.50) 6, J, Q (2 players)
Hero bets $31.50,

Yeah betting pot is definitely overkill in this situation, I also make it $20 + pre as his utg range is ridiculously strong and hell call 20+ just as much as he calls 15. As played Betting $22ish on the flop is fine.
"This sure beats Super Mario Bros.!" is my ejaculation catch phrase.

id 3bet much bigger if you can put him on cards if he calls + his range UTG to open the pot.

Board doesnt look great to stack it all off but id like to get lots in regardless if he cant fold

how often do u not have AA/KK when you reraise in this spot preflop. I'd guess absolutely never. Can this guy read hands at all?
My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

vs this guy sometimes AK. But, vs other players my range gets wider sometimes - I doubt he has this in his notes though. As far as I can tell he's pretty level 1 in his play.

if you reraised any other hand besides AA and KK in this spot (i'm talking about this specific opponent obviously) you'd be making a pretty big mistake. As such if you don't think he is completely oblivious then you should just call with your whole range. He raised 5xBB utg!! with a 3% overall pfr. Calling your whole range here sets up a fine spr for both your nut overpairs and your flopped sets.
