Default preflop monster vs very aggressive opponents

hi

lately i have thought alot about what is better in following situations:

I raise in CO/BU with AA/KK and BB 3bets me as he does very often
is it better to just call and raise the flop because he likely has a hand he would fold to a 4bet or is a 4bet the better choice because we get it in with the best of it for sure and pick up a decent pot and send a message that he cant 3bet all the time because we play back at him

same thing for if we are oop like SB vs BB
i think i tend more often to 4bet oop but actually im 4betting my AA KK nearly always anyway

so how do you guys handle big hands preflop against loose 3better?

if you've been 4betting him light every now and then like you should be doing against an over aggro 3bettor then 4bet him here

Yeah it depends on your history vs his threebets, you should definitely mix it up a bit vs all opponents.

in the case i want your opinion about hero did not 4bet at all in the session

so the 4bet should look like a monster to villain but on the other hand hero could easily be bluffing because villain 3betted so often but maybe thats too seldom so calling with AA/KK might be better and rather bluff4bet to avoid beeing pushed around?
