I think that the choice is between raising the flop or non A turns. I'd prefer to raise the flop... and see what develops. I may mix it up a little, but air on the flop raise 75/25.

i call and raise any turn. call and fold the river if he 3bets the turn.

This is definitely my default line.

But suddenly I wonder whether it makes more sense to raise the flop if villain is overly aggressive. I'm thinking that if you raise the flop, villain takes that less seriously, and might actually reraise or even donk the turn. In that case, you can just call the turn and plan to raise a non-A river.

Without a predictably aggressive opponent, though, I think I'd rather plan to raise the turn.

raise the flop, if he 3 bets i either cap, and call down. or i just call the 3 bet and a turn raise, or call and just get 1 bet in on each street, depending on how i feel at the table.

Against thinking opponents, dont you have to sometimes raise with good hands here in order to make your freecard raises (and caps) work?

Re: real common situation.
 

I like raising the flop half the time, waiting half the time. Mixing it up is good.

Re: real common situation.
 

I like raising the flop and calling down after 3bet best for a couple reasons:

1) Guys will 3bet with TT, hearts, etc. etc.
2) Guys will call you down more liberally because the flop is draw heavy if you raise the flop
3) I don't like the thought of not seeing a showdown against a semi-unknown TAG who 3bets the turn.

im a simpleton. the majoroity of the time i am playing this as fast as possible and raising the flop. if he 3-bets (unless hes a kook) i just call and make sure the big bets go in on turn and river.
