Local $2/$5 underground game, 8 handed, small player pool so everyone has tons of history with each other.
Hero (MP, $1,000) - Winning TAG image, perceived by Villain as a competent player capable of making moves.
Villain (SB, $840) - TAG-ish reg, probably one of the more competent players in the local player pool. Prefers PLO, but still a small winning player at NLHE. Hero has 3bet Villain's preflop opens twice tonight in position. Villain folded both times.
