Ignore preflop, calling is fine and so is 3-betting. What's your plan?

I agree.

I lead and hope to get raised so I can 3bet. Check-raising puts you in an ugly position I think.

check raise

Okay, I bet 22, villain raises to 64, we still have 400 behind. Would making it 170ish and calling an all in be standard?

Hmmmmmm, you HAVE to 3bet this. I would probably jsut push it though. He may put you on A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]x and call with overs.

Note that any raise you make practically commits you no matter what the turn card

I'd just push, it represents a big flush draw very well, and I think you have a better chance of getting action from AT and overpairs. Making it 170ish just broadcasts the fact that you don't care about fold equity, and it puts you in a horrible spot when he calls and one of the many scare cards hits on the turn.
