Default Re: AT, 2 overcards, standard?

I like the preflop raise. You try to isolate a loose limper with AT, you're probably ahead here. Only it didn't work... too bad.

On the flop I think you should just fold. Given that you raise, you obviously think you have enough outs to compete and are looking to perhaps buy an ace as out. However, it's unlikely a loose player like BB will fold ace-rag that hit his rag. After all he has a pair, and you don't fold pairs. Also, the guy betting into you might have an ace-rag that hit. So that's 3 outs for you then. Not enough to even call, as it might also be raised behind you.

But once you raised, and he 3 bets, you must call. If you thought your hand was worth a raise before, you definitely think it's still worth a call now.

(He already told you "I have at least a 9" and you replied with "I don't care, I'm going to outdraw you" and then he says "Well, but I REALLY have at least a 9" and then you suddenly say "Oh ok,in that case you can have it". Weird.)
