250€ PS KO

Dear all

250€ Pokerstars bounty tournament.
something like 4500 players, 1300 remaining, 903 ITM.

Hero has a solid image with a tight game. He used to play loose few hours ago to try to catch a fish (which was a stupid strategy).
No history between Villain & Hero.
Hero has the lowest possible bounty

Villain seems to be a good reg.

Hero is 43BB, Villain 47BB.

7 handed

UTG fold
Villain (U+1) Call (I NEVER saw him limping before, it could be a missclick or an intentional limp, I still do not know).

Hero with :Ad: :Ks: raise to 3.5BB
All fold except Villain who called.

Pot : something like 9.5BB with ante
Hero 39.5BB / Villain 43.5BB
Flop :As: :9c: :6c:

Villain check
Hero bet 4BB
Villain raise 13BB

Action on Hero?
Range of Villain?

Many thanks

Seems like a trivial gii, the question is whether to do it now or OTT, but considering how drawy the board is and you not having a club, I guess I would 3b/jam right now.
As for villain, it is pretty tough to range him, for value he can have all the 2pairs (only one combo of A9s&A8s each though) and 88-99. He could also go with AQ. As for bluffs/draws, there is a ton really.

Hey

Thanks for the answer.
I apologize, I made a mistake, flop was not A98 but A96 but following your comments it does not change a lot.
Expect that for me there are less draws on A96.

This was a hard time to analyze this hand.
In Game, globally everyone agreed on :
- pushing on the flop
- or call / go broke OTT on a non scary card.

But afterwards... I we analyze villain's range :
Limping was so weird from that profile, that I was not really able to evaluate his range : but I think it could be :
small suited Aces (A2 to A7ish)
small pp 22 to 77
suited connectors 56 to 89
some broadways suited or not QT up to KJ.

So when he raised the flop I think he can have some Aces rag / set of 66 / 2 pairs A6 / and draws 87 and clubs.
For me it was an obvious raise.

But, if you were in his shoes, would you raise a draw on a flop with an Ace? My PF range is strong and I am representing an Ace. I would have certainly check KK or QQ. And I think he knows it.

Let me know your thoughts, I am a cash game player and really need to improve my game.

Cheers
