Default 5NL, AQs hits top pair against PFR

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (8 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

UTG+1 ($20.81)
MP1 ($19.28)
MP2 ($5.85)
Hero ($5)
Button ($8.14)
SB ($7.66)
BB ($8.61)
UTG ($8.25)

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Hero posts a blind of $0.05.
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, Hero (poster) checks, Button calls $0.05, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $0.15</font>, Hero calls $0.10, Button calls $0.10.

Flop: ($0.47) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $0.25</font>, Hero ...?

First hand at table. Probably the best top pair hand I could expect to hit, but the board is pretty coordinated. Thoughts?

Why are we not hitting this for a raise preflop?

Raise teh preflops. Raise flop, fold push. Bet turn and check river if he calls.

3-bet BB's PFR, you mean? At the time I felt like BB raising out of position rather than checking was a showing of strength, and with my poor relative position I didn't mind seeing the flop first before bloating the pot.

I'm still trying to get a handle on how aggressively to play hands like this against a raiser preflop; would you mind expanding on what other hands you'd feel comfortable 3-betting with here in this spot?

[/ QUOTE ] We mean when action is on you the first time. You have a premium hand in the cutoff and you check???

Oh, heh, my bad, I didn't even notice that. I'd run to get a drink from the kitchen and didn't make it back in time to catch the action the first time around, and so the first "actual" decision was from after the raise.
