Villain seems competent and moderately aggressive through a very small sample.

Does anyone like limping bvb and just refusing to fold?

Does anyone simply open shove?

Does my 3x suck?

Couple of ways you can play this hand… I prefer this order:

1. Min-2.5x and induce/call (what should be a shove). If he flats just cbet any flop 1/3 pot and re-evaluate

2. Limp. Competent player will usually atleast 2.5-3x you if not shove and just either jam/call shove.

3. Shove. +ev play obv but you may lose value if you think he is reshipping/monkeying it in lighter.

I like option 2 a lot for competent/agg type villains. I first saw the SB limp/jam move used effectively by Wein in the mid to high stakes on a regular basis and he would manage to get it in very good a lot of the times he was called.

I like Danny's #1 on the bvsb. It will see where you are at and then destroy post.

I dont really ever use option 2 here. He has a perfect shove stack and 2.5 x is perfect to induce so I prefer option 1. Option 3 is also find but like it was said above value is lost from worse hands that could shove. I C bet that board 100% of the time around about half pot or less then if he calls re eval on future streets.
