against someone with that stat, flop play is good..you'll get called by worse overpairs and maybe worse pair all day

I'd 3 bet that pf against someone with such loose stats though

I think leading the flop is better, and have had good results doing this.

I thought checking would be better against someone with no aggression that reraised preflop. In general, I agree with you - most of the time I lead this flop.

Sure, with no aggression, one could argue he'd check behind, but after the re-raise (meaning he liked his hand), I thought he'd bet (with something other than AA due to 86/10).

I'm trying not to be results oriented in the fact that he bet, but that was my thought. Looking at his numbers, I suppose you could make a reasonable argument for betting or checking.

The point being that if he will bet and call a raise, he is likely to get it all in either on the flop or the turn. I like to put in as few raises as possible when I'm trying to get all in and when I'm pretty sure my hand is good. Especially when OOP.
