I think you played it correctly. I am shocked you found a 2/5 game at the Mirage. I was there a lot last weekend and never saw it going.

any notes on his sizing in previous hands?
If 3x is standard i probably flat or 3b to induce and 5b jam (since you've seen him 3b so much.)

not folding that's for sure. And don't want to be stuck in a 4b pot on a 963r w/ AQ and have him pot/jam like 78s

i think my decision to 3b would have to be based on if you think he will call with worse, or is he likely to just go bat**** crazy and 4b with worse or some sort of small-medium pp/aj/a10. if he has just been flatting 3b everywhere and seeing flops regardless of his holdings then yes, widen up your 3b range vs this guy big time. if he has been raising EP with crap and then folding to 3b then i think you should just flat. now you have to have a decision to how youre going to react to a 4b before you 3b. imo, even though he has a lot of garbage in his 4b range, i do not like flatting even tho we are in position. i would rather 5b jam and get it in now. even if he has 78s, 74o, 10j, whatever he has, what if the flop would have came 27jr, then what would u do? the only reason u called was because u hit tptk.

i dont mind this high variance aspect of the game playing someone thats hyperaggro with 100bb, any deeper and i wouldve just flatted. some would argue that you could find better spots and just flat here which is completely fine too.

This is a very nice rundown, so most here should read it a couple of times. I flat because i do not know what villains 4 bet will mean. Thus i flat and keep the integrity of my hand. I was tired and lazy, so thanks Kenji.

For those advocating calling, thats a mistake with euro aggro donk on the button. Sorry if i read it wrong. Op i like the 3bet pre calling leaves dead money on the table, as for calling a 4bet oop wth who taught you how to play poker. Does not matter how aggro a guy is a cold 4bet is AKs,KK and AA thats it. Fold everything except AA or KK.

Reread OP. I'm in the CO, he is in EP. He is OOP, not me.

Sound advice kenji

When you called his 4bet preflop, what kind of board do you need to countinue?! U hit top pair, and the board is very unlikely that helped you so he can bet almost with anything especially AK.

If you call the 4bet that's almost the best you can get majority of the time, so you should go with it, unless you were expecting a QQx board, if you know you can't call the raise on the flop or outplay him you should have folded prf.
