AQ flops top pair against agression
Villan is slightly laggish over 31 hands at 42/9.7/1.7. The three bet and flop raise make me think AK, but I'm not folding here. Should I reraise the flop? Call the raise and checkraise the turn? Thanks.

Re: AQ flops top pair against agression
I would 3-bet the flop, and call down if capped(against this opponent).
A LAG will raise QQ or KK on this flop. |

Re: AQ flops top pair against agression
lots of similarities to the recent thread here
flop: looks good, with 3 players I still bet out/call the raise a case might be made for check/call here.... i'd like to hear what others think about this turn: check/calls fine river: check/call looks fine since the flop agg. |

Re: AQ flops top pair against agression
Would this be a good time to go call/call/bet?

[/ QUOTE ] Getting aggressive (I mean check/raising him in this case) can only be correct if the following apply... 1) He will 3-bet you with hands that have you beat, thus allowing you to fold. 2) He will calldown with hands that you currently are ahead of, thus giving you the maximum pay off. If 1 and 2 are not met, there is no need to get aggressive in this spot. Let him bet the best hand or let him bet the worst hand. Brad |
