Default AQ, capped and A on flop

Seems like the converter is down, so we get to do this one by hand.

Party 3/6 6 handed

AQ in BB

CO open raises, I 3bet, he caps

Flop: A83r

He's decent, presumably at least a semi thinking player. The cap could mean the usual AA-JJ AK AQs, or it could be a stubborn attempt to continue the steal.

So whats the plan for this hand.

Bet the flop, he'll raise, you call.

Check the turn, he'll bet, you raise, he'll call.

You bet, he calls.

He shows KK and you win!

Seriously though, I like my line through the turn, because he's raising the flop with anything, and may just think you're being stubborn.

What if he doesnt cooperate, say I take this line but he throws a 3bet in on the turn. Can i give him credit and lay down?

Not without an extremely strong read. If you KNOW he doesn't pull that withought TPTK or a set, then sure. But calling down is fine.

You'd be surprised, I often get raised on the river here by AQ/AJ at 15/30, I'd imagine at 3/6 you'd have to call a raise too.
