I was playing on a $25 buy-in no limit holdem table on party poker. I'm up to about $30.

There's a player(P) at the table (He has $24). During the last 5 hands he has raised to $6 preflop 4 times and not been called. I haven't been at the table long so I don't have a solid read on him.

During this hand P is in the big blinds. I get pocket aces in EP and limp, planing to limp reraise him. All fold to the SB who completes. P just checks.

The flop is 567 rainbow. Checked to P who bets $5. What's your move and why? I'll post my decision and the results later.

i'd push. in my experience people who raise way too much before the flop are also happy to bet with a marginal hand and then also call way too much when it should be clear they're beaten. and i'm not sure if it's true, but i have the impression these players will be more willing to call all-in rather than a more moderate raise. but you'd want to raise him nearly all-in anyway, so it doesn't matter that much.
