Re: If this isnt standard

Look at this guys stats.
1st - his PFR:
If he's raising, theres a greater chance that he's on a steal than that he's got a legitimate hand.

I don't think there's anything in his stats that can tell you this. One could argue that with a PFR of 5 he doesn't really ever steal, and the vast majority of his raises are legitimate hands.

Plus:
In many cases these guys will follow up the flop bet with a turn bet. This becomes less likely when I 3bet preflop.
This play lets me raise the turn to get an extra SB out of the hand.

Which you could have gotten by three-betting pre-flop. And those times when he has a legitimate hand, your 3-bet may be met with a cap, and may not deter any post-flop action.
