I was playing 200/400 SEK in the casino in Stockholm Sweden this saturday (apr. $30/60). The game was extremly loose, 3-4 weakies who played almost every hand. I picked up two aces in early position, good tight player to my left raises, I 3-bet, two weakies calls, another good player 4-bet, blinds fold and everyone already in the pot calls. 4150 in the pot, 5 players. Flop KKQ rainbow. UTG bets, what do you do?

Assume you are ahead and raise to charge everyone who wants to stay aboard the max. My guess is the bettor has a Q, others may have AJ for the gutty or TJ which is also essentially a gutty. Raise it up and commit to showdown unless another Q comes perhaps.

correction, good tight player to my right (UTG) raised, not left.

If there is one flop where I am going to fold aces, this is it.

Agree, and I did despise the great odds Im getting from the pot. I didnt think I had two outs because the aces are probably in the other players hands.
The bettor had AK.
