I got a preflop question.

[Bob T.]

Live 8-16 game.

UTG open raises all-in. Earlier, he open raised 53sooted from early position, and he seems generally loose. Tight aggressive player, who seems to have a clue threebets, everyone to my left murmurs about protection, and looks like they are ready to be spectators,

Everyone to my right behaves, and folds, and I expect that everyone to my left has already folded in their minds.

I have AQ suited. Normally, I wouldn't play AQ against the threebetter, but in this case, I think that he could make the isolation raise with a pretty wide range of hands.

If I coldcall three, then the side pot is going to be 2SBs, but if I reraise, the side pot is going to be 4SBs. I'm pretty sure that if the side pot is 2sbs, the threebettor will play the hand as if it was a dry side pot, but if we make it 4, the hand might get played with a lot more aggression?

What's your play here, and what's your plan for the flop?
