This guy plays a bit weirdly imo. He's a winning reg who plays 16/12 (1.5k hands) 7-9 handed. His overall 3-bet% for a full table is 5.8%.
I call his 3bet because I don't think shoving gets value from worse, even though I'm not quite sure what his 3-betting range is. In my experience most decent regs seem to not have a 3-betting range at all in his spot. I think I'd flat every pair in my opening range here (99+).
Flop hits us both pretty well. I like checking because it lets him bluff if he thinks I have QQ- and missed (I'd give him credit for hitting his board very often) or lets him catch up in case he got fancy and reraised preflop with a weaker hand to spicy things up (not sure if that ever happens though).
I'm not sure about the turn, decided to check but he checks back once again so I bet river and he shoves. By the river my preflop range has hit a bunch of boats, so I don't think he's bluffing or overplaying hands with medium showdown equity much. Question is how many worse hands he shoves for value. I need ~40% equity to call river which seems like a lot given the way the hand was played.
I felt so sick playing this hand. Thoughts?
