I have been typical ~16/12/2
Villain is 16/11/2 over 400 hands with att to steal of 41% and is willing to make plays postflop.

Whats my plan for the rest of the hand??

I do not like re-stealing with AJ. We're usually crushed by his 3-bet calling range.

As played, I think we check, and call a shove. Lots of pairs are in his calling range that didn't want to fold on this flop.

We're pretty deep too, so I might gay-bet the river for like 8-10$ if it checks thru. We'd like TT or less to pay for a showdown.

Don't like 3-betting AJ oop, but I think this could even be a C/F on the turn. Unless this guy's floating 3-bets a ton (in which case the 3-bet with AJ is super terrible), not many worse hands call us. Only hands we beat are the ones that get super-fancy and float flop shove turn in a 3-bet pot and that is extremely spewy because you could be checking turn with a good number of made hands since you really only need one more street to stack.

Only thing we really beat is QJs or something that felt a need to defend and those hands are not betting this turn after we check. We may need to call a small river bet because of this, QJ may be making a value bet putting us on an underpair like 99/TT after we cbet and check 2 streets.

Or maybe if he checks behind on turn we could put out a smallish blocking/value bet on the river and fold to a shove.

Sry Zach, I can't fold TPTK in a 3-bet pot against a guy who "is willing to make plays postflop".

'willing to make plays postflop' from a 16/11 FR player basically means he'll float this flop once in a while with the bottom part of his range. As played I'm happy ch-folding this or dong what zach suggests and putting out a blocking bet on the riv if we see him check back the turn. But I don't like the 3bet pf either against someone you know is going to **** with you postflop.
