I have played villain HU for a bit, which I regret because villain was simply better than me. So I lost quitte a bit of BIs. Old Maikel lost, New Maikel will make the correct adjusments in the future ;)

Villain 60-49 3bet 16

During the match, I found out that villain was putting a lot of pressure when I cap my range on the flop. In single raised pots, as well as in 3bet pots. Above a good example, obviously villain used JJ blockers to rep a straight.

Villain was either betting turn/river to fold my weak range. Or villain delayed CR the turn to put pressure on my "weak perceived range". I had some problems with this so I got into a bit of trouble during the match. Ofcourse I realized that I should check back somewhat stronger range on the flop to pick off a bluff on turn/river. I only had problems, picking the right board textures with my actual hand to underrep my hand and to check back the flop.

Ofcourse villain didn't do this all the time but quite frequently.

1) What kind of adjusments, would u make vs this player?

2) And what kind of boards would u ch/behind to let him bluff turn/river?

3) After I have analyzed I could see some merit in checking behind weak/flush draws or even Ace high flush-draws?

Villain was playing 60-49 3bet of 16
fold to 3bet 10%

Single raised pots,
cbets 76% - folds to CR 53%
Fold to donk bets 21%
Raise donk bets 32%

Villain wasn't playing back when I CRed lots of paired boards, its seems like villain didn't had the will to fight for these pots. I try to balance this out, but until villain i found out, was adjusting i kept CRing villain,

Turn bets - 52%
River bets -50%

Folds to cbet 52%, CR 20%
Folds to turn bet - 42%
Folds to river bet - 50%

From his stats I could see that the river CR of 21%, was relatively high.

Based on stats, and the given description, what would your general strategy/adjusments vs this player?
