Hero???

villain is 20/17 w 7% overall 3bet but he does 3bet BB vs SB more frequently it seems, first time I see him flat 4bet so not rly sure what range to give him, I guess sometthing like AQ/AJ and slowplayed AA/KK are most likely? Is preflop spew in your opinion? Do you barrel turn without knowing anything more about the hands he calls 4b with?

Yeah - think I fold pre to the 3bet. 7% is by no means high so I give him credit for a hand here usually.

Once he calls the 4b I think he's pretty much committing himself. So I think I even save myself a cbet. No harm in him seeing you 4bet A9o - you're more likely to get paid next time you 4b AA...

And I give up 100% on the turn (even though, in a vacuum, it's a good card to barrel). Thing is, it's a good card to barrel when you have feq; here - as I say - villain should see himself as committed almost always.

Well I do think that his 3bet BB vs SB is way higher, but you probably are right and I just spew like a monkey that I am. How much someone has to 3bet you then that you would consider 4bet bluffing?

Hmmm.. idk, regs seem to flat my 4bets not all that infrequently and usually they give up to a cbet when they miss, sure i don't know if this guy ever does that but i set myself quite a good price.

Yea, I gave up.

I agree that his 3bet% is probably a lot higher BB vs SB, so I don't mind the 4bet at all although you have to consider he might play back more often vs a 4bet BBvsSB as well.

As played I'd definitely cbet to have the chance of taking down the pot. Some people call AQ+,QQ+ in this spot, against AQ and AK you can still win the pot.
Again I don't mind the betsizing too much, but I usually make it $19-$22.
It's not much of a difference, but we want him to fold AQ and AK as those are the only hands we can really put in his range which would ever fold.

Once called I'd also c/f on the turn as well as no one floats on the flop with air given the strength of our 4betrange and the size of the pot.
