River: (299.5 BB, 2 players) 2♥

CO shows A♥ A♦ (Two Pair, Aces and Nines) (Pre 82%, Flop 88%, Turn 95%)
Hero mucks K♥ K♣ (Two Pair, Kings and Nines) (Pre 18%, Flop 12%, Turn 5%)
CO wins 289.5 BB

Opponent is agressive fish - 87/30 and his 3bet is 12. His 5-bet is extremely suspecious and we are a bit deep. Bur I can't fold here right. What if it was against a tight weak reg that also chooses such a fishy 5-bet?

Hello,

I would start out with placing a bigger 3bet - like 10bb.
Against a fishy guy I would never fold the kings here.
Against a tight reg I would likely not go broke, as they tend to stack off KK+ mostly when being 150+bb deep.

Best,
Plamen

Would you 3 bet bigger because it won't matter to the fish much if it's 6BB of 10BB? How much would you 3 bet against a reg?

I usually prefer to 3bet bigger against smaller raises coming from weak opponents especially when you are deep in order to build the pot up, and as you said they wouldn't really mind to call 10bb if they are willing to call 6bb.

Against a reg your size looks okay.
