$200NL 6-max: AA step-by-step

[DefiNe]

Villain is 35/18/2 over 2300 hands and Hero is viewed as quite Loose and very Aggressive. No real history between us.

Stack sizes:
Hero: $203.00
CO: $194.00
Button: $223.00
SB: $1037.07
BB: $172.50

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="#">Hero raises to $8</font>, 2 folds, SB calls, BB folds.

Flop: J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ($18, 2 players)
SB checks, <font color="#">Hero bets $14</font>, <font color="#">SB raises to $28</font>

From here I'd like to hear some different lines and why we take them.

I have some trouble in these spots but I usually call the flop and fold on later streets if scary cards hit and he keeps betting. JJ is unlikely b/c of your image, QQ too, but 77 and QJ are possible as well as AQ and some combo draw like A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] so I call flop and call down or fold depending.

I don't see any reason to three-bet the flop.

3bet this on the flop. you are ahead of most of his holdings. 3bet to $85 is good.

3-bet is fine. I'd probably prefer a call and push over the top of any safe turn.

push.

[J. Stew]

so we're calling a push when we three-bet the flop? why not call the flop and push the turn or call down?

basically what I'm getting at yea. I think it's quite an interesting discussion because all the different angles and lines have their different reasons and rightly so?
