Here's an annoying question -- against this individual, is a bet/3-bet line best? Betting the turn and calling down his inevitable raise puts in 3 bets. Betting/3-betting also puts in 3 bets, and has a chance of folding a small pocket.

I dont think trying to push players like this off any hand is the way to go. IŽd be scared that he caps with a worse hand or donks the river and I dont know what to do. I think you must get to Showdown here and dont give him any opportunity to push you off your hand.

I dunno. I doubt he's capping the turn as a bluff. If he donks the river, yeah it's annoying, but my guess is that if you ran the numbers you'd find that if there's even a 15% chance you run him off of a small pocket or get him to fold a weak ace (which still has a 3-outer, or a chance to chop with you) on the turn, the bet/3-bet line is best.

Scarier, certainly -- but I think it HAS to be better than just calling the checkraise.

If you're that insistent about seeing a showdown, then just use the line you did.
