Hi Threads,
Do you recommend slowplaying KK and AA on you're first 3-bet? Table 3
90% of the time I 3-bet a tag for the first time they fold. I know that makes for good argument to
3-bet bluff them 1 or 2 times before you are dealt a monster, but how do you feel about just flatting
when you haven't 3-bet them yet?
-thx.

Table 4 you were thinking about check raising Gilad as a bluff with 99.
If Gilad had AK/AQ on the A high board in that situation and thought he could continue because you had enough bluffs or weird raises with worse hands, I think Gillad can only call your flop check raise, it would be insane to do anything else right?

Threads-
Talking about black friday and the changes since then in these new sites and games has been a big adjustment for me. I played 200 and 400nl on ftp and when bf hit i was destroying the games. I just started playing 25- 100nl again on a euro site in the last month. Here are the biggest adjustments ive made and let me know if that's what u have been seeing as well.
Regs 3 bet somewhat randomized ranges but are easily exploitable. They have have out of whack frequencies and dont know how to combat aggression. For example some regs at 100 and 50 on the network im playing on 3 bet 5 bet like 15% of the time when u open the btn. So i have started to min 4 bet to make their 5b jam w/ ATo and KJ and small pairs un-profitable bc they have to risk over 100bbs usually to win not that many and in turn their play becomes unprofitable. So vs ur calling range they are just punting money to you
Also vs the min 4 bet they fold some % and call and c/f some % too. What combats you having bluffs is that you will just have strong hands enough to make them playing huge pots with marginal hands vs you a very -ev proposition. I think the mn 4b vs the high frequency 3 betters is better that standard sizing bc they get alot less when you fold to a jam. Also bc its not standard vs regs they dont know how to react bc they have not considered how to combat a tiny 4b. Let me know what ur thoughts are.

Disagree about flatting AKs on table 1 for the reason that he doesn't fold to 4bets.
This means you can 4b small to, say, $20, and one of two good things could happen.
1) He small 5bet/bluffs. He's in position, your 150bb deep, he can probably 5bet to $38 or $42 or something and get you to fold all your bluffs, and if he's never folding to your 4bets then he probably is the type to at least consider doing this.
2) He could call; he's in position and he's not facing awful odds, so I could easily see him calling with some hands that you have dominated or have to fold on a lot of flops.
This only changes if you think that he's the type of player to nit out 150bb deep, but given your general read on villain I don't think this is the case.
