FPS: Flop 3-bet pure bluff -- 400NL
I've played with Villain before and he seems like a solid TAG, around 24/8 if my memory serves me correct. I think he's definately capable of folding TPTK for 100xBB most of the time.
My table image is around 30/20 but not super-aggressive post-flop as I don't c-bet nearly as much as most people would, especially against people who know I won't have [censored] most of the time. I like to pick my spots. This leads me to believe that Villain gives me atleast some credit post-flop.

I think that his flop raise will be a combination of air (trying to protect his blind with a small pair or missed highcards) or a weak ace (trying to find out where he's at) enough times to make this bluff slightly +EV. I expect him to fold anything worse than AK and push with the rest. If he calls I'm check-folding the turn. I think it's also a great meta game play (which is why I showed) because after this it's unlikely anyone will play back at me without a real hand which allows me to run the table over for the rest of the session. Thoughts?
