About the hand, 4b is unnecessarily big, 2-2.2x is better. You have a monster range IP, so going big makes him basically only continue with stuff that can stack off pre. In that case you might as well shove, but I don't think that's the way because of your positional advantage. Otherwise it's fine, people might fold pairs and call with stuff like AQhh.
Meaning as long as he's not doing this with all his AKo every time.
Pretty simple concept. If he's barreling and jamming with all his off suit combos.....he's going to be bluffing far too much. Especially in LLSNL where 3 and 4 bet ranges are far stronger than optimal ranges. He should likely be jamming significantly less than checking in a LLSNL scenario.
Balance doesn't require knowledge of V. That's literally the point of playing balanced......until you have info to deviate. Requiring knowledge of V would be the reason to play unbalanced. We already have some general pool information being at LLSNL to start shifting our balance more towards checking.
So, if he's doing this even 50% of the time, he's likely unbalanced the wrong way.
