21/15/8, resteals somewhere between 12-21%, folds to 3bets 36%, turn cbet was 4 out of 4. His flop raise wasn't that high but i think he doesn't fold too much and will probably mess around with me cause he was aggro. I would give up with AQ and AK but I had the gutshot and BDFD so I decided not to fold.

What should my overall plan be? I decided to call flop and turn, expecting him to barrel a lot but I have no real idea about his river barreling frequencies, esp when he is going to rep the TX a lot and I can't really have it. I also think he is polarized given our stack sizes so it's either TX or nothing. I could be pot controlling with AA/KK/QQ though but that's not that relevant since those hands are bluff catchers.

In retrospect, I think c/r Flop should be the most straightforward play, and barrel any turn completing draws...

oh yea what about the river? I was really contemplating calling a river shove but the small bet looks so valuish. Also, there was another hand before this where I called a 3bet IP w 66 and called 3 streets vs his KK on TXX board so he knows his image is shit in my eyes.

i dont think he has to be polarized here coz u re hand looks so much as a pure bluffcatcher, if he had a boat he might not want to scare u off esp realizing that u ve just seen him vbetting better and this time might level urself to a disciplined fold.

F i dont like at all. both c/f or c/r are a lot better, keeping ur options and not getting u into fml spots later.

I also think flop c/c. I think c/c is better than c/r, because not many hands improve our hand so much that we like to play big pots (relative hand strength). I'd like to see Your comments on this here.

I also think this is a clear fold. Can we, though, fold the turn?

One more question- given there is one obv draw + fd, fd is stronger one, taking outs from the previously aforementioned. How do You think its better to act w/weaker obvious draw on a stronger draw board (were we in his shoes)?

I don't think we have odds to call the river bet. Please, comment on this also.

cheers
