Opponent was 29Pfr//86CallOpen. He also had T2o in his open, so i don't know if the 29 was only top of his range or if it was a bit random.
As he called nearly anything i limped more and tried to raise more a value range. Also if i raised his limped 3x he called every time.

Given this info - what do we want to do here? I was unsure if i should raise pre for value or just ship it in over his limp. I choose to raise the limp. 20bb.

What do you think?

    Not sure about the cbet here. Hits his limp call range pretty hard.

    Perhaps it's better to jam it over the limp.
    If we hit the hand we might get no action unless he is holding weak Jx, Ax.
    By jamming we can avoid getting low board spots and perhaps flip against a low pair or best case are up against a dominated hand.
    Does that make sense, at 20bb?

    Was he folding to cbets on low flops like this? Against this player I would have checked after I missed and stuck to value betting only when I hit. But as played it looks fine.
    I was playing a similar opponent with similar stack sizes and was wondering if I should raise my 55 or just jam over his limp pre.

    I'd be more likely to shove 55 than AJ over a limp. With AJ we want a call from weaker Ax Jx. With 55 we just want to take down the dead money.

    Looks good but I'm also unsure about the cbet here.

    lol it sounds like villain is me playing 7s.

    If villain always limp calls 3x- then adapt by raising bigger pre.
