Villian is a very good and super aggro reg.
He's definitely in top 5 of players who piss me off, though that's because he's owned me a bunch. :)

Once I check, I expect a 3-barrel about 80% of the time, but I think this hand is close to mandatory flop check.

Knew the 3-barrel was coming. He still has QJ/JT/67/87/A2/A3/diamonds in his range and maybe some random barrels. Don't think I can fold.

Really annoying sizing because it allows him to value bet A8, and I think calling is a mistake. Maybe it's slightly exploitable because I'm somewhat high up in my range.
With the amount of bluffs he has though, he might want to bet bigger.
My thinking was that I'm check-calling KQ/AK a lot on the flop and turn, and I'd probably c/r those hands small on the river.
But when I clicked raised, I was pretty sure I'd get jammed on, which I think is going to happen against strong players, so I deserved it.
I lose to K9/K5s/44/55, and I beat the hands I mentioned for his turn range, though he obviously wouldn't bluff all of them.
Thoughts on my entire line, especially the river?
