25 NL - LP check-raised my AA.

[Arcturus]

I whiffed big time on this one. Villain (button) is 34.6/0/1 through 30 hands (not a very large sample which makes me feel worse about this hand looking back at it.)

What should you do here? If you call, what do you do if a blank falls?

I can't edit my post apparently, but I realize that it wasn't a check-raise as my title suggests. Oops. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Anyway, call flop &amp; check-raise turn, shove flop, or fold flop?

I 3bet/call shove, villain has Qx or a PP here a lot

I think 3-bet the flop is standard. Lots of queens and flush draws raise this flop... not necessarily an 8.

[Schiester]

I'm happy to get my money in here almost every time. Given pf action, board &amp; stats, I can't see QQ/88 here very often at all. Worse two pair combos have to be much more likely than hands that have you beat.

I don't really know if is better to shove here or call and CRAI on turn; keeping in mind that shove pretty much = PSR.

I'd be much more concerned by a Q than another club on this turn.

His AF is pretty low but considering his VPIP he's probably not completely passive.

... Interested to see how other people play this one.
