Hero call aggressive guy after 3bet pot?

Hero call aggressive guy after 3bet pot?

Hero (1400): LAG image. I probably have a tilt image now. Have lost a lot of big pots in the past 3 hours. Im in for 5k
V1(4500): Good LAG player. Met him today. He has been doing a lot of 3betting against me
V2 (1600): Fish. He likes to call pre flop expecting to hit with bad odds

Blinds 5-10

OTH
Hero raises on MP to 40 with JsTs, V1 3bets me to 110 on LJ, V2 flat calls on SB, hero decides to call.

Why not fold pre? Ive been getting 3betted by this guy a lot the past hours and he has been seen doing aggressive moves. But he looks like a really good player

Flop (340): KcJd7c
V2 checks, hero checks, V1 checks

Turn (340): Kh
V2 checks, hero checks, V1 bets 225. V2 instant folds, hero calls

River (790)
Hero checks, villain goes all in for 1065.

Hero?

First of all: lol. Second of all: I’m sorry, that’s really gross. Third of all: lmao.

But seriously all three options are fine pre. Prolly shouldn’t be deciding based on how much you want to call in that spot based on recent history and how stuck you are. If anything, you probably want to do the OPPOSITE of that if villain is good at playing based on dynamics and image.

Same for river, honestly. In theory you can flip a coin (probably less than that because of multiway with a cold calling fish and overbet), but using dynamics it depends what type of LAG he is. You say he’s a good LAG, so you might want to go counter to your gut and fold because he’s owned you before. But there are also a lot of LAGs who go on god-mode tilt and feel like they can push you out of every pot with an overbet anytime you have a capped range, and these two LAGs aren’t mutually exclusive.

Anyway, can’t really go wrong with folding given the parenthetical factors above.

And one final thought: dayuuuuum!


Preflop seems standard. Folding doesn't lose much and you could 4!. This is one of the better hands to call a 3! with. It plays well against a strong range. Obviously, villain does not have such a strong range at this stakes and based on history.

River is interesting, because the overbet seems to represent trips or better, which don't seem likely. You see people betting large on the river as it is the only way to win the hand. However, maybe not that many are willing to shove 1.5x pot as a bluff.

Based on what villain had, I guess he shoved partly because he didn't want a decision if he got raised. The overbet also seems to narrow his value range and might get calls for that reason. Seems weird and maybe an overplay.
