There is no way in hell I raise AQo in the blinds after 6 limpers.

You agree with playing AQ this way?

This is an easy three-bet regardless of the suit of your A.

I agree, you have to jam it while you are still ahead. You want to drive out the weak hand that might river some cheesy 2-pair on you, (and charge the loosies chasing their back-door draw).

And you like money.

I think the pf raise is debateable, but that's another topic.

I 3-bet to try to knock people out here. If I don't, then I scowl and pray for a good turn card. I really don't want to have the turn get checked through if a safe card comes off, which makes me lean towards 3-betting now rather then planning a turn checkraise which might not work.

Which isn't to say I wouldn't ever checkraise the turn if I 3-bet here, but I think a 3-bet is still correct.

And I like your preflop raise.
