Default Interesting spot vs aggressive opponent

villain is 21/19/7 over 200 hands--- all during this session
also, during this time period i want to say he has 3bet me atleast 10 times

the game is now 3 handed--- since i assume he is 3betting me lightesh and always cbetting flop--- i decide to flat AQ pre from the button b/c id get position after the flop--- I dont think this flop is that bad for me--- do you raise here? flat? fold?--- i really think this is a spot where none of the 3 are bad. What do you do?

I muck on this flop, If our flush draw is good wont win much when we hit it. I its not good we will lose a bunch.
We haev ace high and should find a better spot to play back at villain

This is the first time in a week i have disagreed with sightless so I guess ill expand.

a. His bet size to me reeks of a cbet
b. He is gonna fold a lof of his hands here IMO. He may be weak enough to lay down AK here a lot, definately TT and QQ, maybe KQ. If we are called we will still have pretty good equity (flush and straight outs against a set, A out if he is an idiot and calls with QQ).
c. OP says he is 3 betting him a lot, so his range is actually wider than JJ, AK+

Thank you for elaborating, i never really given much thought to shoving in such spots. I always thought we would just be risking too much to make some fold top pair:/

EMc has some good points there, villain has too wide of a range to fold here. Shove it.

I obviously would play this much different in other spots--- but villains stats push me towards shoving looking back on the hand--- I elected to call because I thought it would look kind of scary since I hadn't done anything to any of his cbets when i called his 3bets.

turn=10h
sb checks
hero----? shoves?--- this is like the gin card no?

i like a shove on the flop instead of a cold call, because you will probably lose value on flushes and it gives you FE vs. a blank turn vs top pair or queens or tens-- esp. since he is always cbetting, FE goes up and if he calls, we have lots of outs
