He's on two of my tables. 16/13/3 over 90 hands. Only other hand I've had with him was where I raised PF with 66 and he cold called with QQ. I flopped a set and bet it (low board), he raised me 3x, I pushed, and he called.

What's the best play on the turn? If I check, do I fold to a bet? If I check, what's my river play if he checks behind?

I would check-fold vs this guy; his range is crushing you as it is. Those are some nitty stats.

I'd prefer not to 3-bet vs this guy. If you're gonna do it, don't waste a "good" hand on where all you do is fold out his worse hands and get OOP vs his better hands.

3-bet with Ax, SC's and stuff where you can actually get better hands to fold and have some equity when called.

If he's prone to 2-barrel you post flop then go for lots of flop CR's if you don't wanna call down light or else take the call flop-lead turn approach (I prefer CR flop).

If he's sane, then I'd suggest just calling lots of flops and folding when he bets turn, rivers are tricky...
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

Pre-flop is fine. I think calling is a lot worse because he's not the sort to give amazing implied odds, particularly if we're OOP. I also don't hate a check/fold on the flop if he's calling 3-bets tight and not 4-betting his best hands.

Yes. You're still not stacking him a large % of the time on 8xx boards. He'll miss with AK, pot control and laydown with AA/KK/QQ or over-set you often enough to make this a bad call out of position.

A 13%ish PFR is high enough that he figues to be opening hands on the button he won't call a 3-bet with. Or if he's not folding to the 3-bet then you have a profitable c-bet. Use the pot you built with your aggression then to put yourself in a position where you really can stack him on 8xx boards.

i think you played it good but yeah just give up at this point.

Although it weirds me out that there are quite a few spots like this and most of them seem like give up spots.

You played it well but now just check/fold. I don't think he is folding to a push. Especially not after your 66 hand.

If villain has a tight 3-bet calling range I also lean towards c/f flop. His preflop stats look decent, for what it's worth, at least they don't show any looseness.

If villain could be calling preflop with AK and sorts and folds it on a flop like this, betting is good ofcouse.

If you really wanna rep AA/KK you have to shove turn, but I don't think villains range is wide enough, and the board scary enough, for you to have enough FE.
