AA 9/18 Commerce multiway

I'm vacationing in Los Angeles right now, but couldn't help myself and played a super short session at commerce.

UTG + 1 seems like a reg, has been raising very lightly (a-3 raised in same spot and got it hu and value bet against a monkey).

Cutoff smart creative player that seems to play any ace and knows exactly when to value bet/cc.

Hero AA in bb and has image of not getting out of line.

UTG + 1 raises, Cutoff calls, Button calls, sb folds, BB 3 bets, UTG+1 calls, Cutoff makes a remark saying "oh no" calls, button calls.

Flop:

J-10-7 rainbow. Hero bets, UTG+1 raises, Cutoff 3bets, button folds, hero ?

My main concern here is what range do you think he raises with here and what line do you take against him...

Call, see if UTG+1 wants to cap.
Donk the turn.

I think I cap and bet the turn and see what happens from there. If either player raises the turn I'm done.

UTG+1 could have JJ, TT, AJ-QJ, AT, or JK. Cutoff seems more likely to have you beat here with JT, 89, or 77.

My initial re-action was cap and I probably would in the heat of battle, but I after thinking about it I don't think it creates value.

They probably tag you as tight something. So they are sure the pf re-raise does not mean J9o.

That leaves some wiggle room for them on almost any flop to represent what they know you do not have, and they can safely guess you do not have a Jack or Ten, let alone a seven.

The J and T on the flop are not out of their probable hand range, so they either have a piece of the flop or want to represent having a piece of the flop.

If it were not for cutoff's remark, I may not be happy with my hand judging by the betting on the flop. As it is, I am happy to call on the limited information available.

I think they want to see if you can be pushed around.
