38/33 in 1k hands, 17% 3bet, same squeeze. We have a lot of history, played a lot of HU starting tables. Notes include that he's too aggro and calls very light vs me. It was his first 3bet at that table 12 hands in.

Players behind me are a 19/9 and BTN is 59/8, I called to try and get them in. Do you think just shoving here is better, or perhaps folding?

Opinions about post flop too please..

BB: €118.30
Hero (UTG): €100.00
CO: €145.87
BTN: €96.26
SB: €100.50

SB posts SB €0.50, BB posts BB €1.00

Pre Flop: (pot: €1.50) Hero has A J

Hero raises to €4.00, CO calls €4.00, BTN calls €4.00, SB raises to €18.00, fold, Hero calls €14.00, fold, fold

Flop: (€45.00, 2 players) 8 6 6
SB checks, Hero checks

Turn: (€45.00, 2 players) 2
SB bets €26.00, [color=red]Hero

so his real 6 max stats a re a lot tighter since you always started tables or is this filtered?

preflop im just folding, hes squeezing an utg open and a fish call, that says nothing but strength and i think even hitting TPTK either way can get you into trouble.

OTF im taking a stab, you can rep a hand like 99-QQ or even AA/KK bc of the fish, and now you have a chance to make a better hand your drawing slim against, AQ/AK, fold.

you don't want to play AJo in a 4way 3bet pot oop.
fold or shove pre

yeah I think I was getting too fancy; his stats are filtered between 3-6 players, though it includes a lot of 4max where ranges are wider

I thought you have AK and wondered what problem you have here

With AJo calling IP is bad. Playability of this hand is poor and you may end up paying of AQ+ on Axx. Your sample size might be misleading - his 3b stats are big in HU, but 6-max is a different animal. He 3b vs EP open, so I'd just get the fuck out of there. If his true sqz stat would be really that high, regardless of the posistion of the PFR, then I like shoving.

Yeh I think villian has very little fold equity here preflop and therefore has a stronger range. I think I just fold this one oop 4way. Although if the fish are very bad a call might be ok because villian should play very straight forward postflop.

lot of good advice in this thread

i think the most important thing, which has been hit already, is that you need to have a clear sense of his 3b 'intelligence' here. if he views it as an attractive spot to squeeze, you should rejam; if not, you should fold 100x. either way, this is a pretty mediocre hand to play in a 55bb pot 100bb deep three-way, even with a fish.
