History: Villain is relatively new to the table, maybe 3-4 orbits in. Hasn't gotten out of line at all, from what I can tell is playing standard. I've been pretty active, he's seen me take down a few pots with flop raises/2 barreling. Haven't shown down a hand since he sat.
1 orbit ago:
I raise to $30 with QQ from LP, he 3-bets to $60 from the blinds. Head up to flop, I'm IP.
Flop comes A83, no flush or straight draws.
He bets $85, I repop to $200. He tanks for a bit then shoves. I fold.
Hand in question($850 effective):
No limpers, I again raise to $25 from LP with KhKs, he 3-bets to $75 again from blinds. I 4-bet to $200. He tanks for a while, calls.
Flop comes T72dd.
He checks, I tank for a bit then check.
Turn comes T725 flush draw misses.
V leads for $300. I shove.
So once he flats my 4-bet pre I'm putting his range on jacks, queens, AK. Checking behind the flop is risky, but I'm thinking if he has the PP he will lead the turn, committing him when I shove. Betting the flop takes down the pot most of the time, but I feel like I'm missing value by not giving him a chance to hang himself.
