Pocket A\'s with a paired board...too timid?
 

I am currently in a MTT limit hold'em tournament on PP and I have a hand that I just played, and I am not sure if perhaps I played it to timidly due to a board pair. I was dealt pocket AA and a pair of 7's came on the board with a quick aggressive raiser to my left. I really did not have a read on this player yet. I merely went off the base of the quickness and general fealing of the bet. This caused me call more than raise on the proceeding hands, especially when a third 7 appeared.

Here is the hand:

Weakkkkk. 3-bet it, and if he caps, call and bet out again on the river. It's just too unlikely that he has the 7, if he did he represented it very poorly on the flop. 88 is possible, but again unlikely.
