Default PL25: Got into trouble with aces

PokerStars Pot-Limit Omaha High, $0.25 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

BB ($7.20)
UTG ($9.35)
Hero ($37.30)
CO ($2.35)
Button ($36.70)
SB ($37.05)

Preflop: Hero is MP with T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $0.85</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to $1.45</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $4.6</font>, SB calls $3.15.

Flop: ($9.45) 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets $9</font>, Hero?

Call the minraise preflop or four-bet? Given the depth of stacks I'm not sure it's worth it to inflate the pot preflop, but villain's three-bet just seemed so shady. If I call, the rest of the hand obviously becomes much easier. As is, I'm in kind of a tough spot when villain leads for pot. Thoughts?

I flat call this flop.

Also, I don't mind the re-raise in position, but a call is fine too. This deep you're not turning your hand up 4-betting PF unless you only do it with AA. Just be sure you're doing this with good non-AA holdings.

Yeah I think flat calling is probably the best play, but I honestly probably just stick it in here b/c I love variance and hitting backdoor straights. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

yeah push, i think this usually not a set that would probably try to check raise on this board. i expect to see two pair or a wrap a lot here. i dont like calling as the turn still isnt easy to play for you. you pretty much have to guess what to do if the board pairs or if a brick hits and he pots again you might be pushed off a hand with pretty good equity and he might fold on a spade turn.

Opp donk rr from SB just screams wrap at this level. He's definitely trying to figure out if your holding aces with his 3-bet pf. I like the flat call pf as it helps conceal your hand a "little."
-Flop - I honestly believes he's holding a small wrap like 4567 or 5789 w/ maybe a redwraw to flush. I don't believe he has a set here at all. Maybe he has 2 pair, but we still have plenty of outs if thats the case. I shove flop as we are most likely ahead with our aces, have nut flush draw, and we even block his outs to str draw here w/ our 7.
Turn - AI
