Party 10/20: A5s SB vs. BB
 

BB in this hand is pretty aggro preflop and postflop, bluffs, semibluffs, etc. His stats are 52/20/2 or so.

Comments on all streets appreciated.

I don't like the stop&amp;go, it allows him to play perfectly.

Do you favor a flop 3-bet, or calling the flop raise?

Given my flop play and the turn card, do you favor a checkraise or a check-call?

Re: Party 10/20: A5s SB vs. BB
 

Given your read I wouldn't worry about him taking a free card. My action is bet, call, call, call. If that was a concern I would certainly 3 bet the flop and lead.

I normally 3-bet these flops, he's almost always seeing a showdown anyway.

I agree. Out of position I think it's best to just play top pair pedal to the metal heads up, especially blind vs. blind.
