Default Bling bling blind battle.

Villain is an overaggressive TAG. May be tilting -- I honestly don't know. I've been 3-betting her a lot and getting the best of most flops. I don't consider her a particularly good player or handreader but that's subjective.

Folded to her, she raises from the SB. I 3-bet black Aces from the BB, she calls, and we're off to the races.

Flop is J35r and she bets. I call. Sometimes I raise and sometimes I call, I don't think it makes a huge difference in the long run.

The turn is a T, completing the rainbow. She checks, I bet, and she checkraises. I 3-bet. She caps and I don't feel happy, but I'm not horribly sad. I know she's overaggressive, she probably thinks the same of me, so our bet-raising ranges are probably escalated a bit (according to PA my table stats for the session are 32/25/2.5).

The river is a 3. She bets and I raise.

Holla?

I would be happy to just call this river and let her show me JT.

I think she will have JT about as often as JJ, TT, 55 or 33, but you are gonna lose a bet more against the latter (unless you feel comfortable folding to a 3-bet, which I wouldn't).

I think she will never have JJ or TT. How much does that clear things up?

I like your line, but have no idea why you think she'll never have JJ or TT here, but probably has JT.

Against me especially (though also in general against aggressive opposition), I think this particular villain (29/22 or so) caps pairs like 77 & 88 preflop 90% of the time, and 99+ very close to 100%. If there were a high pocket pair she wouldn't cap preflop, my guess is it would be AA or KK for "deception" rather than TT or JJ.

Obviously this is just a guess but it needs to be strongly weighted. We've been playing together for well over an hour, and I think she's more likely to send lots of bets my way with a pocket pair preflop than not.

Yeah, then I like it better. Only 4 combos of 55 and 33.

I've been meaning to ask you about this, mostly out of curiosity. What kind of hands are you going that crazy with to get your pfr up to 23-25ish? And what is your fold bb and sb to steal.

I think this hand looks pretty standard, but it's one of those hands were you probably know better than anyone what is/was the right play depending on your feel for the game and players. And I am assuming you'll pay off a river 3-bet here?

Makes sense. Means the river raise is even more obvious.

I like your river raise but I see no reason to 3-bet the turn. Even if you thought you were good often enough (which I don't think you are unless this is her typical line with TP or something) you should call planning to raise any river. But the way I play it is simply calling her turn raise then calling the river unless an A, 3, or 5 comes off.
