AA HU
 

50/100

Villian is pretty solid, i am playing him because my initial read is that he folds a little too much HU and i can nickel and dime him. He has not gotten out of line yet. I have 11.5k, he covers.

Preflop, he raises to 300, i smooth call with AA. Flop is 36T all diamonds (I have no diamond) I check, he bets 700, i make 2200, he calls. Turn is a low offsuit brick. Pot is 5k, i have 9 behind. Your action?

I don't really like smooth-calling with Aces here with over 100BB each.

His range is pretty wide although I think most likely is pair+diamond. I don't think you can formulate any plan that involves folding on the turn because he may play aggressively with hands that you beat. So, I would bet about 4.5k, laying him a little worse than 2:1. Going broke to this type of board is the risk you take by smoothcalling.

I defintly re-raise here a lot, i just think smoothcalling is god from time to time because it forces him to pay off big river bets with top pair type hands more because i didn
't re-raise preflop. The major problem is of course as you said, his range is fairly wide here and there isnt really away to get away from my hand when behind.
