You should complete Exercise 1 and Exercise 2 before you do this exercise.

He also leads a lot of flops, c-bets 85%, and c-bets the turn 60%, being very aggressive. The BB is a complete unknown.

It folds to our Hero pre-flop in the CO who raises to 3 times the big blind. The BU calls, and the blinds fold. The flop pot is 7.5 big blinds, and the flop comes T 6 5 . Hero ...
Exercise 1 was sort of a warm-up to get you used to the idea of thinking about your own range and how it progresses over time. Exercise 2 was to get you used to thinking about how you're playing your entire range on one street. Both of these exercises are leading up to this exercise where we are going to think about the implications of our flop continuation betting range. Answer the following questions about your flop c-betting range, breaking down your range and proving the answers with some 6th grade math:

1. Are you vulnerable to a flop pot-sized raise against your flop c-betting range from Exercise 2 if Villain has KQ?
2. Are you vulnerable to Villain calling the flop with KQ and betting 2/3 pot whenever you check the turn?
3. What is your flop c-betting range trying to exploit in Villain's play?
