Re: AQo in the BB
[ QUOTE ]
i tend to give credit until i see otherwise. a raise UTG and HU, i'm not 3-betting preflop. i might 3-bet the flop, but mostly he's already said he can beat your pair of queens. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah? And maybe he's full of it. You are fearing monsters under the bed.

Re: AQo in the BB
How does check-raising give us more information? An aggressive player might 3-bet anyway with AK, AQ, KQ, KK, or...
Of course we're going to 3-bet the flop. Shoot, I would cap it if given the chance. I really don't like your advice on this hand.

Re: AQo in the BB
<font color="red">WARNING</font>: 2+2 newbie here. If I'm wrong, be gentle; if I'm right, it was an accident, I swear.
Either 3-bet pre-flop and lead out on the flop (showing aggression) or call pre-flop and check-raise the flop (playing possum a little). If he reraises you, then you might slow down. Bet the turn. He may already have a straight, but you don't want him to get a free card if he holds A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]/K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. You could have bet the river, but considering his aggressiveness a check-raise might have been in order. With top two, the only hands that beat you are 8/9, K/J, or sets.

Don't worry, the villain does not have 98. [/ QUOTE ] Thanks for the input guys. I'm taking notes here! Just to clarify, those that reccomended the 3bet pf, that was because: 1) I'm in the BB, so its effectively only 2 bets to me 2) You generally want to not be pushed off the blind? 3) Agression rules Poker. 4) something I'm missing? BTW, he had KJo, and subsequent PT reads gave him the little cash bag icon ^_^ I noted him down for future reference.

I was more commenting that the advice the OP was getting was to 3-bet the flop, not 3-bet pre-flop that he understood it as.

[/ QUOTE ] Ya, I'm not sure anymore about c/raising the turn... 3 betting might be the best option because I don't like an SNG. I think it's close between 3 betting and doing a call/call/bet.
