I didn't want a multiway huge pot, this is why I called preflop.

You think you get more callers if you 3-bet pre?

Don't get me wrong, I 3bet AQ almost ever, but in this case I choose to call. Is this a mistake? I have a good hand and position, but the fish is unpredictable and the initial raiser is not stealing.

The 18/12-player is a huge fish? I re-raise preflop if I play. If MP really is a huge fish calling is +EV, but still I much rather prefer being the aggressor, taking down the pot preflop or UI on the flop when we both miss.

EDIT: calling puts you in a spot postflop where you might very well fold the best hand on the flop, while raising means you can take down the pot right away or get a better but not great hand to fold on the flop.

I would fold to the turn bet here. Would he do this TT/JJ ? Don't think so. Also...what is his standard raise ? Is it 3.5? is it 4? is it 5? Does he bet the same amount regardless of posessions ? Does he play SC a lot ?
