Fold AA on the flop?

If not now, when?

Villain is 28/5/1.7 - when he caps, I'm thinking KK or QQ. AK is a lot less likely since I'm holding 2 of the As, right?

Other guy is 67/0/1.8 - and not a factor (you wouldn't believe what he called with, anyway).

UTG+1 could have as little as Qx. Villain could easily have AK. 3-bet this flop.

The other AA is possible as well. I'd 3-bet here.

OK, three-bet - makes sense. Call if it's capped? What about the turn?

I've seen this in a couple of posts now. Capping pf with AK is awfully rare in my experience at 1/2. Others see it regularly?
My gut says 3-bet, but my brain says fold.

I don't know about the turn in this case, but if you had 3-bet and it was capped on the flop, this would be an easier decision.

Looks like folding the turn would be prudent.

I cap AK PF.. is that wrong?

That's what I thought. Villain showed QQ. The other guy - 76o.
