I don't know where you play but better old regs here do open 76s occasionally (for the cliched 'balance'). If he's opening 99-TT early he is not nitty and can open suited connectors. Also, that range means he raised an overpair pre, then flatted and folded a big pair to a $70 raise on a $278 pot ($48+30+30+100+70) giving him 4-1 on a call. He raised, got a pretty decent flop, then fold to a smallish raise with AA/KK/QQ? How is that poker savvy?

It's a block bet. Block bettors fold if offered an incorrect price. Considering it's a pretty good sizing for a draw block (when hero called he got 5.23-1) he isn't exactly price unaware.

I agree. Just showing that it wouldn't be a good call for V1 with clean outs. Discounting the dirty outs made it worst.
