Default I have aces.... no, really, I do !

Villain is tight/passive. With his flop bet, I'm pretty sure he has a smallish overpair but I don't think he's married to it.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $2 BB (9 handed) converter

Hero ($271.1)
SB ($233.7)
BB ($194)
UTG ($245.15)
UTG+1 ($190)
MP1 ($47.95)
MP2 ($184.15)
MP3 ($341.15)
CO ($83.7)

Preflop: Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $1.
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 raises to $10</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $35</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP3 calls $25.

Flop: ($73) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">MP3 bets $20</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $70</font>

This deep he might be the type to call and see if you'll fire again on the turn. Committ to a PSB bluff on the flop unless you'll bet the pot on the turn. Make him fear your turn bet.. you're not putting the pressure of dedicating a lot of chips with the size of your bet.

Though your bet size might be the one you make with aces, he does not know that, presumably, and the cheap price will entice an unknown into calling, unless you have furhter information

It's fine if villain is the type to get away from a small overpair. I'm raising to $80 I guess, but that's not much of a difference.

And I consider smooth-calling with position preflop if AQ-AT/KQ is fairly likely. EDIT: Forget this. Villain can get away from an overpair and stack sizes are no good for stacking AJ on an A-high flop. I'm raising with you.

How does he view you?

Barring anything unusual looks good.
