1/2 SH on Stars

Hero has $410, Villain is a solid TAG regular with a full stack

Dealt in MP1, folds to me...

Hero raises to $8
MP2 raises to $26

Decision #1, do I smooth call and take a flop vs this guy for deceptive purposes?

Against a 1-off donk I might, but vs this guy (who presumably plays well post flop), I popped it to $76, he calls. Now I have him on AK, QQ or JJ. I have eliminated KK because with KK, I personally think he would push. Logic check there?

anyway, flop comes ,OOP hero does what?

Pot is $150 or so and villain has `$120 left.

[quote="shamdonk]shove. Btw he doesn't have AA here?[/quote]

the other aa you mean?

Are you sure he shoves preflop with KK? Doesn't your 3betting preflop OOP shout AA-KK? I'm not so sure KK is out of consideration here. The other AA is also possible but I think he's more likely to shove that than a careful player with KK, unless you have a big LAG image preflop.

Less than a PSB left going to the flop, I'm pushing any flop. That flop sucks but you don't have any room to maneuver. If he has KK or JJ oh well you played it right.

Push.

KK= 3 combos

Can he laydown AK/QQ/JJ getting 2:1 preflop?

AK= 6 combos
QQ= 6
JJ= 3

Cut AK/QQ/JJ in half if wanna weigh in how often he folds these PF, it's still a profitable push. A call would look suspiscous and AK'll call enough to make a good profit.
