AA facing donkbet in mutiway pot
 
flop donker is a bad/tilty nit

the caller is 23/20/9 (381) and frankly his line seems very strong to me

could I consider just calling the flop and checking the turn behind or is this way too weak?

as played i have to call.

I'm not a huge fan of the flop raise. It turns your hand face up and you forfeit a lot of value imo. I would just call the flop and not get too attached to this hand.

calling is almost definately -EV on this dry board. I think this is almost definately a fold.

Also calling the flop probably isnt the right play. You can get value from other overpair type things, ect, so I like the raise.

I don't think calling this flop is bad, you won't have a hard time playing the hand on later streets imo. If I raised however, I would definitely have raised less.

would you have raised less so as to fold to a shove ?

What is the point of raise/folding?

i guess i'm a little off centre compared to the others, but i'm very comfortable getting it in on the flop. i like where we are in this hand, and i'm fine with getting the rest in at this point...this could easily be a straight draw, or a slow played JJ-KK that wants to take it down right now...either way, i'm comfortable here and i like this as played. let's get the rest in and hold up.
