guy has 3bet ip of about 9% over about 40 opportunities for ip 3bet

his vpip is 38 over 300 hands... open % is 38 average

i figure he's gotta be 3betting me a bit tighter because i'm utg and figure to have a good hand

but i also figure that we need to be playing back in this spot sometimes... with what hands do you recommend? A blocker is nice because he figures to be 3betting some double paired or double suited semi-connected hands too and A blocker makes aces half as likely.

here is hand

PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha, $0.25 BB (6 handed) - PokerStars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

BB ($9.89)
Hero (UTG) ($29.86)
MP ($15.68)
CO ($3.83)
Button ($33.66)
SB ($25.79)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with J, A, 10, 10
Hero bets $0.85, 2 folds, Button raises to $2.75, 2 folds, Hero?

Total pot: $2.05 | Rake: $0

You don't mention your own VPIP. His 3 betting range will tighten/widen depending on your VPIP. He isn't going to 3 bet without aces/kings if you're tight

it was probably around 15-20 for his database on me. i guess if he's always doing it with aces/kings we should never play back without aces?
