Default AQ at the flop.

Absolute poker 1/2 holdem.The game is very tight and agressive.9 handed.Usually 25-30% see the flop.
6 players are extreamly rare in this game and I am wondering what to do after bet,caller and raiser.
Hero is in last possition with A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].Early player and two middle limp.Hero raises everyone calls.
6 players,the pot is $12.
The flop is Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
BB bet,UTG fold,MP2 calls,MP3 raise,Hero???

I would three bet. Very good chance you have the best hand.

What if you had K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] instead of A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Yeah, this is pretty clear. I'd 3-bet KQ too, but some players can limp AQ so I'd be wary of that and take note of further resistance. When you have KQ, the most likely hand to be behind isn't AQ, it's a set. This is obviously possible with the hand as posted, so I think you can fold to a turn c/r against unknowns.

3 betting is the only play with the AQ, though i would consider just calling with the KQ, depending on the players.

easy 3-bet...i'm thinking your opponents have QJ, KQ, AQ, or a set....most of those are good for you.
