Very deep, .25/.50, pf 3-bet is called

[acidca]

Villain has been playing with me for a couple hours at this table. He is solid, and probably a winning player at this level. I have been playing very aggressively preflop, and so has he. I have 3-bet preflop several times in the past 100 hands, and he has a couple times also.

This is not the best hand to 3-bet, but we are very deep and I beleive I can outplay him postflop. I think KTs is ahead of his betting range on the button.

Standard continuation bet. After he calls I am probably done with the hand here.

I could certainly play AA the way I've played it so far. He is very deep and I beleive he can lay down a big hand. Furthermore, it's possible he called me light on the flop because I've made this very play a few times. If I raise here, will he call with less than a set ever? If he does call with AQ/AK, would this be a bad spot to check-raise?

this is totally read based. If he is as good as you say he is, he cannot call your c/r w/ just AK.
