Id play the same, can u pls post stats in future thx.

preflop is depending, if villain is stealing a lot, then calling is better, you dont want to play OOP in a 3way pot.

flop is fine
turn is fine

Preflop is unarguable IMO. Villain has to be a total nit for it to be incorrect.

Flop I cbet a bit more, 7.5 I prefer.

Turn is good.

3-betting this hand against a frequent blind stealer should be standard.

You surely don't want to be OOP in a HU pot, without being the agressor AND with a hand that flops 1/3 of the time.

yeah preflop is fine, my bad

Preflop I play AQ the same. Just calling OOP sucks, you have to fold if you don't hit the flop.

You're showing a lot of strength with that 3bet PF, so fire big on the flop. Villain probably puts you on QQ+ or AK.

He calls this cbet with a FD, SD or something like KQ of KJ, maybe 66-QQ. If he's regular TAG he doesn't call your 3bet with 67 or 32, so he probably doesn't have a SD.

This does depend on his stats so it's very hard to make a right decision without stats!

Depending on his stats I would fire again on turn. If he's a decent player he could lay down KJ or worse. It sucks though if you have to fire multiple streets to let someone lay down TP. As played you indeed have to fold this turn.

seems pretty good, i may bet more on the flop.

[DontTiltMe]

It looks good.

I think 6.5 on the flop is very good. You lose less when behind, and i don't think betting 7.5-8 creates more folding equity.

Betting the turn would be bad. Given his min-raise preflop, he is probaly a donk, and not looking to fold.
