villain is like 23/18, pretty aggro. my image should be unknown/ loose and spewy. i think i'd jsut lost a huge pot, however we have no direct game dynamic between us.
after not 4-betting pre, i didn't really know what to do on all streets.

looks like the AK installment plan, although your hand is faceup. id fold w/out history, and if he thinks you could be spewy hes less likely to bluff as he'll perceive less FE. regarding preflop, again, if he thinks youre spewy then keep that image in mind and tend to 4b if he would stick it in light against you.

with image noted and the fact that you just lost a big pot, seems like a great spot to 4bet pre

due to those same image factors, like steve mentioned, he's prob less likely to double barrel here so i think c/c c/f is fine (actually even if your image was solid it'd be the standard play i guess)

I fold the turn but I definately 4-bet pre. Their range is so wide there, your gonna have alot of trouble reading their hand well.

thats why he needs to bet 100 on turn with AK, so you call and then not fold river

i'm still folding to $100 on the turn, and i'd imagine it's standard. with the reduced price comes the fact that it's even less likely to be a bluff. and it's not like he'd do that with JJ for value

I'd shove it preflop, although if he's not 3betting as aggressively that might be suboptimal cause you don't get called by worse.
