This guy had been really aggressive, raising every button and had 3 bet me twice in the first 7-10 hands. This is also the second time he had minraised my c-bet on the flop in the 7-10 hands. Not sure how to combat this kind of aggression, but I don't think this will show a profit over the long run.

Neither do I. This is really, really bad.

If he is as agressive as you say, limp in pots, play flops and get the money in when you've hit.

I'd be careful about how much weight you put on your opponent raising his button every time in the first 7-10 hands. Just today my first four button deals were AJs, JJ, TT, and QQ. He may be uber aggressive or he may be catching cards. In either case, I think you overplayed your hand. I probably would have just called the pf raise with the thought that this guy will be likely to make some big mistakes on the flop if I hit. I'd counter his aggression by trying to trap him. A cr on the flop if I hit would be my line. He may three bet second pair and at minimum, it looks like a cbet will be coming. In the back of my head, though, I'd be thinking that he may just be catching cards and wouldn't fully judge him yet.

Your 3bet sizing is off. As played, definitely fold to the minraise.

Raise more PF, either check call shove or shove flop.

Oh, ya... and if you go to 300 PF and they call, shove flop.
