Same.

Why try to get cute with just TPTK? If SB caps the flop and bets the turn I'd probably slow down.

I think this is just too weak of a play. TPTK vs a LAG? Phhh, get outta here; it's time for maximum chip extraction, not pussy-footin'.

Calls and raises any turn trapping the BB for 2+ BB.

I think calling the flop and raising the turn is your best choice, trapping bb for two big ones. You don't have to worry much over bb folding a turn raise. If bb was someone who likes to peel most flops but folding the turn, a flop 3-bet would be good.

I can see no convincing reason not to three bet. You are ahead a vast majority of the time, may get a cap from a worst hand, and AQ might even get sweet and check raise you on the turn (SB). I am three betting, and raising a cap/turn lead.

You are not behind very often here. I would keep an eye on BB if an 8 comes on the turn as that is what I put him on.

You have position for the rest of the hand - cap.

It seems to me that you have to cap it here because you have AKs. Push the pot equity edge.

Don't we need to be concerned here. I think there is at least a 50% possibility that this player has AA. You think this player is so bad she can't put you on an Ace by the action so far. Also so bad that by the way she has been playing she now thinks she can push you off any Ax hand.

I'm calling down. I think nothing to gain by pushing her off KK (not that that is possible with this player) and how many outs does BB have against us to worry about him drawing out on us. Let him pad the pot for us.
