Villian unknown - small winner on TR like 2.4k or something silly. We've been playing maybe 15 hands, I 3 bet twice and he folded, he 3 bet twice, once I folded the flop and this time I didn't want to for obv. reasons.... most people that play me know that I hate folding and I'm a huge calling station but i follow guide from headsup-pokerstrategy.C0M , and that make the difference. what do you think?

What worse hands shove here?

AA, KK, TT, AK, AT, 35 and QJ is likely here, and I dont see hands like AQ, AJ, A9, KQ shoving.

Only hands I put in his bluffin range is 23s, 45s and maybe JTs. His timing on flop bet and turn check is important.

A foolish man learns nothing from his mistakes.
A smart man learns only from his own mistakes.
A wise man learns from his own mistakes, and those of the smart man and the fool.

elipsesjeff is an unknown quantity at this point

What are the suits like in this spot? If it's completely rainbow then AA/KK/AK are a possibility (12 combos) but not likely as bet/bet/bet would be standard given you're probably never folding Ax anyway. He's basically repping only QJ and it is a possibility that he has it here. Of all the possible calling hands we could have in this spot we have the very bottom of our range so I don't mind folding.
