nl50-nl200 6max help w/ villain
what's the proper adjustment against a villain who cbets large in his 3bet pots, ie: pot sized flop cbets are the norm.
also has a habit of donking and barrelling small when in a 3bp without the initiative. the donks are typcially weak made or strong but non nut hands on wet or polar boards where he is unlikely to face a 2b. he's essentially minimizing his losses by setting his own bet size each street and is unconcerned about lost value when he has the best hand.
strategically he's weak but maybe i'm weaker if i don't know how to capitalize on his overextensions and other unbalanced behaviour.
floating is uncomfortable when 100 bb deep and facing cbet of 23/23bb.
some notes:
i've seen him 3b and 2 barrel a missed AKo on t98 xyz with brick turn. give up otr 4 liner.
2b call a 3b iso oop, donk and 3 brl KQo on kj9 /8/k
thanks in advance,

Vs his 3-bets:
If you know him, open tighter vs him and 4-bet or fold more vs him preflop.
If you call his 3-bet trap him with AA (dont put AA in your 4-bet range).
Vs his donkrange: Does he barrel Turn aswel?
Good board like AQ3r etc
You could call as if you made the small bet and then take over your polar range OTT when he checks. Bij betting big or check. Do this on boards that favor you.
Boards that favor him
Fold or raise with value and good bluffs. And play Turn polar.
GL vs him and take him down!
Floating vs pot-sized cbets is torching 100bb deep. Better to 3b bluff pre a bit more or just fold marginal hands.
ty,
thanks brotha. yes he barrels turn and rvr, unless things get really messy like 4 or 5 liner. he has little regard for board texture imo, whomever it favours.
He overbets when strong or weak, so fold your medium hands, and raise thinly or bluff vs his tiny barrels to take advantage.
