He may have JJ here although I don't think he would raise so much on the flop. He could easily have AJ, maybe QQ. Also, KJ of clubs or some type of FD. I don't see how you can get away from this with your stack size and the pot size.

Looks like AJ, KJ, QJ to me, or the nut flush draw. KK or QQ maybe. Heads up, I would suspect they'd slowplay a set holding 55, JJ or 77. They can't have 5J, 7J or 57, I'm not worried about that.

I'd push.

If I'm not going to fold, I gotta push right?

i think u played it ok and would say theres nearly zero players u could lay down those aces too in a spot like that. I think the only thing worth noting was your choice of bet size on the flop... with UTG having only 2100 compared to the 1950 in the pot alrready, i think some better choices would have been to A) move in... or B) attempt the c/r allin. i dont think folding should have been a very good option no matter how it played out on the flop so therefore u should play for everything now or take the potdown.

Either moving in now or c/r all in are both terrible options IMO.

If anything your flop bet is a little too small, maybe t1000-t1200 would be better. Same result though, you are probably getting all in here and you'd be right to do so.

FYI a pot sized raise on villain's part is to 3,350. Most bad players just raise 3x your bet, but his raise isn't large by any means.
