i think i 4 bet pre.

interesting spot on flop because of his bet sizing. you need an loose image to c/r this i think. i may just call...he'll put u on a draw or ten or JJ. then make a weak lead on blank turn and try to get it in he'd totally not expect u to have what u have and u may get a call from QQ.

i think i like a lead on flop here to be honest. in 3 bet pots i think leading out is sweet i have to think more about when tho

Fold pre

"JJ+AQ+"

No it's like QQ+ and a good percentage of AK, sometimes JJ, rarely TT. Almost never AQ.

I don't think you can continue +EV vs this player preflop. You won't win much money from his QQ- and you have big RIO if he has KK+.

Flop i c/c. You loose to AA/TT win vs QQ/JJ split vs AK. QQ/JJ won't give you much more value.

If he bets again you have to fold imho.

Wow, given villain this is a tough spot. Call the flop, reevaluate turn (I can find a fold here if the action grows too much). Don't hate folding pre also against a super nit OOP.
