Villain is 25/25 after 4 hands..
PokerStars - $0.02 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4
BTN: 69 BB
SB: 86.5 BB
BB: 108.5 BB
Hero (UTG): 104.5 BB
MP: 138.5 BB
CO: 170 BB
SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB
Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 8
8
Hero raises to 2.5 BB, fold, CO raises to 8.5 BB, fold, fold, fold, Hero calls 6 BB
Whats our range for calling 3bets in this spot vs unknowns?
Flop: (18.5 BB, 2 players) 6 T
2
Hero checks, CO bets 6 BB, Hero calls 6 BB
Dry board that doesn't particually favour villain. I guess check / call is the line at an high %?
Turn: (30.5 BB, 2 players) J
Hero checks, CO checks
River: (30.5 BB, 2 players) T
Hero checks, CO bets 24.5 BB, Hero calls 24.5 BB
What line do you opt for here? block bet or check call?
Am i a fish for calling here? i didn't think villains line made much sense here, and with this bet size in particular it screamed to me that he didnt want a call...
Please critique ..

Hi, Claret~N~Blue!
Preflop
It depends on what range we open on UTG.
We usually need to defend around 40-45% of our range on UTG to avoid being exploited.
You can use GTO Wiz preflop ranges, but I don't think we should fold medium pockets and use low ones so much on micro.
I would also avoid the low 76s-54s connectors towards ATs-KTs, QJs, especially OOP.
This is because the average 3bet frequencies at micro are lower than at higher stakes.
In any case, it's a good idea to spend a few hours validating your default preflop model.
It doesn’t matter if you develop it yourself or take ready-made ones from available sources.
It is important that you have starting points from which you can deviate depending on the players at your table.
Defend OOP/IP for example:
Flop
Yes, Villain has no advantage on this board and we can defend by MDF with any Pair+ and Overcads+bdfd.
It's worth noting that Villain on this board should be more likely to play from a polar Cbet with large sizing.
Turn
After Villain checks the turn, we can discount the nuts in his range.
River
On the river Villain's range contains a huge amount of nomade hands in his range (61%).
This is a great opportunity for a bluff.
Against a pot bet, we need Villain to fold more than 50% for a profitable bluff.
Therefore, a bet with any hand is better than a check/fold.
Specifically, our hand has equity and against an aggressive opponent, we can use it as a bluff catcher.
But against an unknown opponent, I would choose a block bet 1/3-1/2 of the pot to prevent my opponent from choosing his own sizing.
We will get raises only from sets (8%) and maybe we can get some hero calls from Ahi against our low sizing.

I'll take all this on board.
