of course turn T made my job easier, but otherwise Im in a very interesting position. Btw button is too loose, kinda dumb but attempts to think.

Absent a read- I don't like 3-betting an UTG raise with ATo, beyond that it's a pretty standard poker hand.

in my mind it was close, but I don't really mind if he has a stronger hand than mine (as long as its not AA KK QQ) as I felt at the time I was a much better postflop player. He was actually I believe pretty tight, but I had a very tight image as well.

Outplaying somebody post flop or not, if he's got a better hand, isn't folding and not losing any money a viable way to out play him? How often are you pushing him off a better hand HU?

man dude, its just this hand was played a few days ago and I'm blanking out a bit. I do recall villain having a very low pfr, (between 11 and 17, yea yea thats a huge range) and I recall him being a thinking player, but kinda weak. I surely don't mind if he has 55-99 KQ KJ even AJ AQ.

I fold this preflop w/o a read, turn / river are standard.

really really dont 3bet preflop. even if you know how the raiser plays it has to be a very strange situation for the 3bet to be right. the rest is fine but preflop is terribly ugly.
