It'd be nice to have a read here. It's a tough spot, but I'd lean towards a fold because that board hits his range hard. We're hoping he has AK basically if he is anything less than a LAG.

Edit: Missed your read first time around. I fold.

I think you're beat. You should probably fold. If you just call here you can be sure that you're facing a big bet on the turn - there you're going to have to fold to any turn except the miracle T.

Ugh, that's the 2nd worst flop you can get with AA in a 3-bet pot. Anyways, bet more on the flop, like 5.5, your bet is too small and villain COULD bluff-raise but I doubt it. I fold here but it'd be easier had you bet a little more on the flop.
