SB: $25 (100 bb)
Hero (BB): $85.10 (340.4 bb)
UTG: $31.46 (125.8 bb)
MP: $25 (100 bb)
CO: $39.51 (158 bb)
BTN: $16.90 (67.6 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A 4
2 folds, CO raises to $0.62, 2 folds, Hero calls $0.37

Flop: ($1.34) 9 4 K (2 players)
Hero checks, CO bets $1, Hero raises to $2.75, CO folds

CO- 21/18 over 235 hands, AF 5.3

By raising here we get a ton of folds plus I am prepared to stack off here. He doesn't have a ton of two pair/sets that stack off. Imo most of his flop defending range calls so we have to plan on barreling high cards to get him off second pair hands. I'm not sure how to play diamonds or A turn cards really since they're scarecards but then again I don't know if he'll bet them himself. I guess at that point we have to look to get value from his Kx which he's calling with

Hi legand73

Preflop: looks fine

Postflop: Stacking off 160 deep is a bit optimistic unless you have some additional info over these 200 hands (he does seem aggro).

I guess you are assuming that he can 3-bet bluff a lot?

Yeah stacking off may in fact be too optimistic. At least 2bet/raising here because yes I do think he can 3bet bluff a lot.

Once he 3-bets we can decide on his size as well because it could be small so a shove would definitely be huge.

So let's say he 3-bets $7 you would have a huge amount behind.

Can we not just make a raise (that isn't a shove) to around $12.5 or so?

Definitely a good option.

Vs an aggro guy you invite more spews and possibly worse draws to stick around (either by shoving vs you or calling vs you).

If we invite more spews and worse draws to either call or shove, is it less optimistic to try stack off here this deep?

Depends on your assumptions on the player.

That's why you have to have that decision made when you decide on your raise size. Stacking off by shoving directly was the more optimistic play that i was referring to initially.
