    Default 2 hands.. Very different options

    1. villian seems like a regular, good player, only folds/raises/3bets, and it looks like he was changing gears to be more aggro at this time.. How light can we stack off 150bbs deep?

    2. Same villian (he hasnt 4bet me since, lol). I'm pretty sure this is way too spewy. 3barrelling without outs. However, the only real thing I can put him on is a draw. Earlier in the session he overbet shoved the flop (3x pot) with bottom set on a semi-scary board (6T7).. So I put a set out of his range. His big K's and KJ he raises either the flop or turn 99% of the time. The only thing I can see him calling with is Kx x<J preying for a split. But he's a good player, so I cant really see him doing it. FWIW, I wouldnt do this against a bad player.
    Also, on the turn, I think bet is too small. But at the same time, I want him to think that im milking his draw. But again at the same time, I think I'm outleveling myself.

    This is the conclusion I came to a few nights ago. I've been trying far too hard against thinking opponents when there are so many bad players at these levels.

    FWIW, I'm not shoving JJ against this guy unless he's pulling that move a lot and I'm probably not 2nd and 3rd barreling without any real outs.
    LOL OPERATIONS
