Hi guys would like some thoughts on this hand, there is some history leading up to this. i as good as stacked him in a BvB situation with 18 left and he managed to double a few times then shut it down with about 3 to go to FT with a good stack. when the FT started he was playing really agg again and was invovled in every other pot for the first couple of orbits. i had opened 2 hands and got folds in this time, then this came up. we had been sat together for 105 hands and he had been min raising my blind 63% when folded too and he was playing 29/18, am i spewing here or would you take a similar line? thanks all.

Question I think you have to ask yourself here on the flop is how would you play an overpair or AJ in position on this super dry board against an aggro player bvb. I like the raise and sizing preflop, maybe just float his flop donkbet and reevaluate. This helps to control the size of the pot and imo you would prob play an overpair/AJ the same way. If he donks the turn again I may throw in a small 2.2x raise and fold if he comes over the top. Or if he checks the turn just bet 1/3-1/2 pot and give up if he check/raises unless its an A on turn obv. I like the aggression though just a suggestion for a better line in this particular situation.

Flat pre to keep weaker hands in his range and get creative post-flop, IMO.

Flat pre, float, raise turn/barrel turn
