Default Re: AQ, between a tag and a short stack

I think that I may have preferred to bet the flop as opposed to check. If it had come back to you raised and 3-bet, then I think that you could have probably comfortably folded.

As it is, I think that a fold still looks right. BB is tight and has a low pf raise stat (over how many hands ?), so he could easily have AA or KK. I suppose that he could also have AK and that button could be stacking off with Qx.

Nonetheless, if you call the flop raise, BB may still 3-bet behind you and the button might cap.

So, as you are not closing the action, you are unsure whether you have the best hand or not, and seeing a showdown could be expensive, I think that I would fold to the flop raise.
