Default Flopped a monster OOP, when to pounce.

AP 3-6, 6 handed.

I open with 66 Utg+1
Palomino in UTG+2 3bets.
Button who is bad cold calls.
Blinds fold.
I call.

Flop is AA6 no flush draw
I check, Pal bets, Button Raises,.....

Whats our move here? Doesn't any action I take here but folding scream big hand? Is there value in trying to slow play here? Any good player in Pal's seat has to know I have a big hand if I cold call on the flop, generally should I give her a shot to draw out or 3bet the flop given that she 3bet PF? Is there any point in goin for a CR of any sort on the turn or should we just assume now that since 3bets went in PF and a bet and raise on the flop that one of them has an ace and just floor the gas pedal?

Does it matter if we switch the positions of Pal and the fish? Weight the decision more towards her having an A?

What changes if the flop was QQ6 or JJ6 instead?

Slowplay? No way. It's 3 handed and no one is folding. 3-bet now and this flop usually gets capped. QQ6/JJ6 same thing...

3-handed and everybody seems intrested in the pot and you have a monster... just push it whenever you can.

Anyone else donk the flop? I think that would disguise hero's hand better than c/r or c/c.

donking isn't bad because there is a good chance that you'll get to 3-bet the flop and you can let villain cap it which might let you get in a turn c/r if he has a weak kicker with his A. More than likely though you are looking for a bet, 3-bet turn which means you want to be the capper on the flop so that your turn lead looks normal. In that case to be the capper against the trips you want to go for the c/r.

These hands are pretty easy to play. just c/r the flop and then ram and jam unless a K, Q or J comes.

I like to take the simple hands and overthink them to death, while at the same time completly ignoring the complicated and interesting hands.

you have to ram and jam now while you can. you probably won't be able to cap the big streets so get the money in now.

You make the most by jamming here. Calling gives away your hand anyway so your best bet is to give them a chance to put in a ton of bets on the flop and turn.

From Pal's point of view, is it credible that you'd cc here with anything other than Ax? I wouldn't think so. On the other hand, if you two mix it up frequently (and it seems that you do), she might weight pps 77-99 strongly enough to find a call with an overpair to the 6 if you 3-bet. There also aren't many unpaired broadways in her likely range unless you're engaged in a running pissing match pf.

I 3-bet.
