I've got 75 hands on the villain, he's 25/22. AF of 6.5, which is 14, 8 and 1 on the flop, turn and river respectively. Winning player, seems reasonably decent.

Villain si going to be opening suited broadways, AJo+ and mot, if not all, PPs. I elect to call in the SB. I didn't feel I had that much value against his UTG range and don't want to turn it into a bluff, or play a bloated pot OOP, but would welcome thoughts on 3 betting this?

Near enough dream flop for me, with top set. Villain is agro, cbetting 100%, so I check and he duly obliges. Given his high cbetting, I can't really narrow his range down, I would certainly cbet nearly all my range on a board like this. I elected not to raise, not wanting to fold out his weaker hands and giving him the chance to fire again, the only likely hands which could really call a raise are 22, 88, QQ+.

Ghastly card for me completing the flush. On the plus side, villain picks up a lot of equity with his broadways making two pair, gutshots and so on. I think he would again barrel most of his range here.

Another overcard to my set and completes a probably unlikely q10 straight draw. Villain's AF has been low on the river but he makes a decent be
I get the distinct impression here I could be second best. Problem is I haven't really been able to narrow down villain's range because I've played so passively and he's very aggressive. He would certainly take this line with KK+ and his suited broadways which make a flush.
My guess is his range is 22, 88, QQ+, AJo+, KQo, QTs+, KTs+. I could maybe discount KQo, QQ hands, which he may just check behind for showdown value rather than turn in to a bluff.
Thoughts as to how I played it? Should i be raising the flop or another time?
