AQ in 3 bet pot

37/23/2.2 over 70 some hands. He can call 3bets loosely and is generally aggressive postflop. I think this is one of the few times he's CR me this big.

call + evaluate turn?

this isnt a big raise comparing to pot size, i think call + evaluate turn is a good thing to do.

Well, if I call, I'm guessing I call a turn shove as I have less than half a pot sized bet left?

i think its shove/fold, I lean towards shove since its a blind battle and the opponent is loose aggressive. Only hands were behind that he could have are 22, 88, A2, A8 and AK. Even if he has a set this time i think he does this with a naked Ace enough its profitable to shove.

Don't think you can fold this. Push and hope he has AJ.

I'm pretty sure I fold this, but I don't know why and can't back it up with any cogent thoughts.

Maybe I'd say that this looks like a classic way that a Good LAG who has been splashing around a lot catches the poor unfortunate and patient TAG.

This is bad. What turn do you hope to see?

This is clearly a push and fold, just put his range in pokerstove and Im sure this is an easy push.

(including sets, any flushdraw, A8+ etc)
