Opponent is a reg with nitty pf stats, but fairly standard postflop stats. He's playing 17/11/5 pre, cbet % by street is 67/44/44.

Probably don't want to be 3-betting vs such a tight opener. Although I try not to flat too much from the sb, I think this is a fine hand to see a flop hu or multiway.

It was really tempting to call but his line feels very strong to triple barrel here. I think most players shutdown after getting called twice in this spot.
Tried to think if he could valuebet worse like this but decided he probably wouldn't. However, from a game theory stand point perhaps we need to call here with the blocker and being towards the top of our range?
