    That's exactly what I was feeling. Just felt like against a villain that is calling as frequently as him both preflop and postflop, that folding second pair couldn't be right there. But I believe y'alls analysis moreso than my own here.

    For future reference, villain showed Jh3h. How should knowing he takes this line with such a hand affect my adjusting towards him?

    3bet a bit larger pre with pretty much same range -I assume you are fairly linear 3betting from SB yea? unless you're really bad postflop or have some specific tell when you go 2-7 here and r gonna c/f like 80% of flops his call pre can not be good

    Calling 5 more with J3s isn't too bad imo, even if slightly -EV in vac (which it might not be). Most regs won't adjust correctly anyway.

    He makes loose calls OOP facing 3bets 100bb deep as well. I've seen him call with T7s/77/76s, and some other hands that a lot of regs are typically folding. I've only seen him 4bet with QQ/AK+ fwiw.

    I've started 3betting him larger. Going 3x to 11x IP (rather than a typical 9x). Thoughts on what my 3bet sizing when OOP facing a 3x open from him should be? And what about both IP/OOP facing a 2x? I'm thinking 3x -> 14x OOP, 2x -> 8x IP, and 2x -> 10x OOP.

    Also 2x -> 7x is typically my standard when OOP. Should I be adjusting to a better sizing as a default there?
