Default Re: Making him fold a better hand

3-bet the flop. Your hand is strong but vulnerable to overcards.

Is my hand really strong based on the action so far? And how will 3-betting protect my hand from overcards? 3-betting would only serve two purposes here:
1) extract bets when we're ahead, which is very nice, but are we ahead often enough?
2) gain information so that we can fold our hand

However definitely go for a bet. UTG will be under a lot of pressure b/c of the ace and his bad position.

What about a check-raise? That way we'll get to see what the MP decides to do, and it would put even bigger pressure on UTG since we've played our hand just like an AK?
