Re: AQ from the BB
F -- Fold 'em. If there are 4 ppl or more, I would have no problem w/ a call. In this situation, you wouldn't want to call since you most likely have a better hand than CO since his raise is a likely attempt to steal/fold the blinds. Re-raising probably clears out the UTGs and puts you HU (3 handed at worst) with a likely best-hand scenario.
F -- I would try to check-raise here since the tendency for SSHE games is for players to check to the PF aggressor. Check-raising stands a good chance at protecting your fairly strong holding on this Flop (TP, BDFD) by folding the 2 UTG. This will only work if you are fairly certain it will get checked to CO on the Flop though
If CO smooth calls you are most likely ahead right now or he could be setting you up for a raise on the T w/ a stronger holding. If he 3bets, well, check/call the T and bet the R, folding to a Raise.
I'm still learning a ton so this may be off a bit. Welcome to other suggestions. Oh yeah, any reads on CO?
