I respect this opponent. He recently took $500ish when I raised preflop to $18 with AQs in early mid-position and flopped Q-high, but he slowplayed his AA in mid-position. He is aggressive preflop, but his starting hand requirements are sound: VP$IP = 20.71, PF Raise % = 8.88. His play postflop is also very good.
Thoughts and comments appreciated.
