Default My toughest AA in a while

Villain is weak 22/8/1.75 Over 200 hands, it's the first time that he's raising a cb. He's playing very passively in general. The board is drawy as hell, but his raise/bet let me think he has a strong hand... what do you think?

I find a fold in these spots pretty often, to be honest

Villian could have a draw. So i guess it comes down to reads, does he play draws like this? If so shove.
If, however , villian likes to just call with draws its an easy fold.

How often does he 3bet? If pretty much never then he could have KK-JJ that he plays fast.

It's still probably a fold though.

looking at stacks i dont think villian has a draw sn this is a fold. I think a draw is a lot more likely to go for a b/3b on flop.

i'd expect him to flip over 99-KK.

don't know whether he'd feel confident his TT-KK was ahead though, that's the main problem i think.

i don't mind a min-reraise on the flop to regain control. if he is passive he is unlikely shoving a draw.

exactly what I was thinking, but assume you have no read whatsoever apart from stats not so reliable and you don't know how he plays his draws, what do choose get away or get it in?
