Re: Unimproved AQo Vs. Lead
Why would you want to raise with AA or KK here... think about it...
If he has trips, you're drawing slim. If he has a lower pair, he's drawing to two outs... so why would you want to blow him off his hand by raising. Call and let him check the turn, you can check back. Then... call/bet river to win a small pot with your overpair. You also allow him to bluff by calling. Calling with an overpair is standard. Raise only if you're certain he'll call you with all lower pairs.
FOlding is best.
Calling is fine if you have a read that hes weak and will fold low pairs. Raising here always seems to get a call or a reraise, which is not what you want with overcards.
