Villain is a winning low-midstakes reg. He is quite tight. My image is also tight. He probably thinks my 3bet range here is TT+; AQs+. I don't have a lot of hands on him but his range for flatting a 3bet OOP here should be strong.

Thoughts on all streets please, but especially river (do you check behind, do you go for value, do you ever turn your hand into a bluff here, why?).

I nearly folded pre but don't like flatting very much here at all.

how can you be bluffing the river??? I doubt his flatting range is that strong here pre given your sizing and stacks...

I think this is like the easiest flat pre ever fwiw

River is meh, work out what you think he'll call with, if there isn't much then check back, but I would have just bet/folded turn.

id probably size my bets to bet bet shove river

if hes only flatting 3bets with strong hands aswell idk why you 3bet pre, but i generally think ppl will click buttons(good odds yo!) and flat 3bets alot wider than you actually perceive, no matter how good you actually think they are. given your read though i can definately imagine flatting pre here though mainly b/c there are 2 great resteal stacks in the blinds(who we obv snap if they shove and the opener folds!)

river is a clear valuebet as played wtf....
