sick of short stacks

This guy was pretty tight aggressive. He played at 19/(can't remember PFR) and his aggression factor was 7. Can I get away from this? or is this going to be AK enough for me to call this.

I am probably folding this one unless I had seen him make this play with tptk.

I think your preflop reraise was weak and if you had made it 1 you would be thinking KK, QQ JJ with a competent villain.

I have the same problem on the flop, you should make it about 1.2 to go. I have to admit his little .1 bet looks like Ks or Qs trying to get you to reraise. Tough spot no matter what but I generally fold unless i know villain to be sketchy.

I'd raise around $0.8-$1 preflop, lead flop for $1. As played I'd call against a player this aggressive.

my range for villain here:

hands that we beat: AXh (?) AK (6)

hands that beat us: K9 (9) KQ (9) 99 (3) QQ (3) KK (3) TJ (16)

this seems like an easy fold against even an aggro player

Raise more preflop. You're givng him to good odds to flop a set vs you.

On the flop I lead 100% because an aggro villain will raise with many beaten hands and I don't want him to draw cheaply if he has hearts.

As played, a player pushing your (far too small again) c/r is either stupid or not scared of your c/r.

with 19 VPIP and 7 aggresion he could have just about anything from a complete bluff to the nuts here, with such a draw heavy board I call, I think we are well ahead of his range.

minbet/rr is bad news bears. The only hand that he probably has that we can beat is AK.

Given the pf action, this is a fold, but I wouldn't fault you for calling.

drastically less likely holding than usual due to the fact that we have two aces. i think that's the pivotal bit of info for this hand.
