I didn't have a huge sample set, but he's agro, but he flatted the flop then raised the turn, does he have an 8 most of the time here? There isn't much else he could have, right? Would I be leveling myself if I call here thinking he thinks my line is a wide range (which it is).

1) I probably stack off and chalk it up to a cooler.

2) I wouldn't raise the flop. You're isolating the wrong player, a nit is never calling you with worse here. As played i have no problem putting the rest in on the turn.

3) Fold preflop as played standard.

Hand 1: I know a turn raise is supposed to be a big hand always but I still stack off here. Could be wrong to do that though. But I see he's a lagtard, aggro, and trips are even harder to make than sets (aren't they?) so I put it in and take a note.

Hand 2: Depending on how nitty MP is I 3-bet or call as you did preflop. Just call the flop, the reason you didn't 3-bet preflop is you're afraid of AK,AQ,JJ+. Raising the flop gets you no value from the ones you're beating and stacked by the ones beating you.

Hand 3: Calling the mini 3-bet is fine. Check behind the flop though. Once you bet you gotta get it in though.

Hand 1: I'm almost always getting it in here. I think snap AI if he's really aggro post flop.
Hand 2: I almost always 3-bet this preflop. Call might be alright depending on just how nitty he is. I think flatting flop is a bit better but raising probably is not that bad. The nit isn't that likely to put in much more money if he has worse than you, even if you flat. Raising might drive out BB, but I mean he's a station, he's calling with any piece anyways

. If nit pulls a bet/3bet on you I let it go.
Hand 3: I don't mind pre-flop. Couldn't imagine folding post-flop. Might try to induce something from him by checking.
