Looks good to me. I don't make this preflop 3-bet without a read on UTG (I'll do it to anyone with 10PFR or higher), but everything else looks good.

yeah the 3 bet was my wonder. There is another post similar to this one, I think it's the 88 hand, where there was some question about a river bet too.

In this case the "villian" never showed and I won the hand. I suspect he called me down with A hi. Sometimes I think a guy would make that call against an aggressive player (me...at times wrongful aggression...)thinking I may be pumping something like AQ the entire way to his AK.

3 Bets with medium pocket pairs can be tricky. You want to be reasonably certain the blinds will be dropping out, or know that the PF raiser has loose raising requirements - like 55 *wink* *wink*.

Wow, your really trying to make a name for yourself. No one is going to call you weak after the 55 hand and then this.

I like everyting.

I am not wild about the PF 3-bet. But whatever. Probably read dependent. And if you had TT, I would think it was standard. IF it was a tight raiser I would consider folding, I would not cold-call. So yay you nice hand.
