Welcome to the next post in my live hand reading practice series.
I am not actually the Hero in this hand, which comes from a YouTube video. I have not watched past the decision point in this post so I know as much as you. I will post the YouTube link after some discussion. :-)

$2/5 NLH @ MGM
Match-the-deepest-stack buy-in structure
Effective stacks $675
Villain is young, European, seems competent. He made two reasonable but failed bluffs recently. Does not appear to be tilting.
PRE-FLOP
Two players in EP limp.
Villain in CO raises to $35.
Hero is on BTN with A

and 3-bets to $100.
Only V calls.

V checks.
What is V's range? I am bad at figuring out OOP call ranges here, but that's why I'm doing this. How's my read?
Most of the time, V will 4-bet top hands, so I weighted those down to 15%. V could perceive H as 3-betting light here, so there are a bunch more calling hands in V's range.
Hero bets $100. [Not sure if I agree with this decision, but let's focus on the read for now.

Villain calls quickly.

Villain checks.
I think Villain's range narrows to:
This would make sense if V is folding under pairs, calling middling hands, and slowplaying big hands 15% of the time.
Read?
Hero?
