Hi guys

Villain: Is a good russian reg. 86% cbet and very aggro on all streets on 230 hands

Table dinamics : already ITM but still a little far away from FT. All players are good and are playing very cauteosly (dont know how to spell this lol) preflop and postflop

I think i am ahead of his range but dont feel comfortable facing two more barrels (we hate really a lot of cards here) so i decide to raise and try to finish it now, althought i dont have a clear idea of what to do if he reraises (probably folding lol)

Any ideas?

Poker Stars, $4.50 Buy-in (7,000/14,000 blinds, 1,750 ante) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 6 Players

BTN: 869,859 (62.1 bb)

Preflop: Hero is MP with 8

UTG raises to 30,800, Hero calls 30,800, 4 folds

Flop: (93,100) 7

(2 players)
UTG bets 31,654, Hero raises to 98,000, UTG folds

Vs aggro players like that I think this is a good play. He's c-betting a very wide range here and there's a good chance he chases over cards and a wide range of draws so make him pay.

I really don't like capping your range so much. Wich 7x do you have that play this way? You are playing your range so face up that you allow him to play perfectly...
You can't have overpairs, so few combos of 7x, so essentially you are telling him that you have Tx or worse plus draws.

If I were V I would float the raise, preparing to leading some turns or if it goes check check, firing river for a big sizing vs your perceived capped range

As played, what is your plan for the turn play. What cards will you keep barreling?

Please next time include all the relevant stats and sample size

Jam preflop vs someone who is going to just barrel off a lot of flops. I mean you're 6 handed with a good pair and about 25 blinds effective.

Ok you all guys agree with just calling the cbet

So OTT as he is soooo aggro are we more or less calling any second barrel?

My bad english doesn´t allow me to expreess clearly my ideas : what i try to say is this one of this hands that you just "hold steady" and call the second barrel even if a "good second barrel" card appears OTT? If we are going to fold to more or less any overcard here what´s the point of just calling the cbet?

That´s the reason i chose for raising the bet : i think i can get a lot of folds AND i evade a somewhat difficult situation OTT
