Hand 3 for Review: Flopped Trips, Reraised on Turn

[aexchange]

InterPoker $.50/$1 NL

Hero ~ $205
Villian ~ $110

Villian is a donkey. Busted him before during a previous night on his all-in move on the river when he tried to bluff me with his Ax rag and I called with Big Slick. My Ace high, King kicker was good.

Next day...

Hero is dealt A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

2 Limpers. Hero raises to $4. Both limpers call.

Flop
A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Checked thru.

Turn:

Hero bets $8. Villian raises to $24. Hero?

If you think the "donkey" would raise pf with AQ, then pop him back. Otherwise I call it down, trying to get a cheap showdown.

How many players are around the table? What position are the limpers (most importantly villain) in? How is villain's preflop aggression?

First, small point, but this is trips, not a set.

Your ace is well disguised from the flop action. I think you should be looking at trying to maximize the pot here - there are only 4 hands that have you beat, and pretty much any ace plays the same way. Most opponents won't be folding an ace here under any circumstances, which is a good argument for pushing. You might conceivably get calls with pocket pairs or Qx as well.
