SB is a good player (25/12 full ring) who likes to play alot of hands but sometimes it seems like his fold button is broke.

I know this is a weird line on the flop which makes it a bit harder to play with these stacks on the turn. Assuming were never folding this hand, whats the best way to play it from here???

"Assuming were never folding this hand" And why is that? The small blind looks very strong at this point.

not a fan of the huge flop raise unless i know he'll call with AQ and worse

Please explain why you checkraised the flop.

This is one of those standard all worse hands fold and all better ones call situations. Would the villain call with AQ here?

Check behind on the turn and c/f river unless a spade hits or he makes a weakish lead.

Definitely bet 200 on flop here. MP# is less likely to get out of line with SB still to act. If raised, you can fold.

As played, SB looks to be on set. He calls pf, calls flop bet and your c/r. He puts you on ace so he knows you can't have flush. He's pretty sure you're on AK as you wouldnt play AA this way. If you have AA he's still going all the way here. So definitely check turn, hit flush, bet smallish to get him to pay. If river blanks and he puts in real bet, i fold.
