Villain's 6m stats are 23/16/2, pretty decent TAG, table got empty, so we played HU, match was pretty aggro, several 3bets etc but noone really went out of line so far. I don't play HU too often, so wondering, is TPTK pretty much the nuts here for 125bb?

def the nuts in a 3bet pot and usually in a single raised pot on this flop imo

Beyond standard. Even for 200bb, I would consider it standard for an aggro match like u said.

What is the worst hand we are felting here?

What would you say if had QJ for example?

definitely not the nuts but we still go broke. since we raised, folding is ootq

if we had QJ we call the flop

with QJ you need more of a read on the guy to raise, but this is the nuts.

QJ is super dependent on how the match has been going imo but I think raising with qj is certainly viable, and this is std

I don't see why people think QJ is that different from AJ in this situation. I think its standard with either in a 3bet pot.

Ok, thanks for the replies, i am not autofelting TPTK in 6m each time, so wasn't sure it's worth an instacall HU, like i did...

He had AA, so i will write it down as a cooler, i guess.
