AA OOP Deep

Villain is running 20/17/3, fold to 3bet 88%. I think he is a recent move up. Heros image might be a little loose. Only history to this point was a QQ v AK blind battle, which is how he got his stack.

Hero ??

I check because my hand is marginal vs. a tight range
maybe he has a weaker hand it would be better to let him bet for us

then again it's retarded because we can't call turn and river
can we call a turn bet and blocking donk the river? I don't blocking bet that often so I don't know how successful it would be or if c/f river is better

I think you should bet this turn, not sure about the river though if he calls

i would probably half pot the turn and shove the river

So we are pretty much screwed here? It seems we are only getting called by better and it will be hard to c/c 2 streets.

I think bet/folding $75 is fine on the turn, though if he calls I have little idea about the river.

I think checking the turn costs us the pot. Yea we are only getting called by hands we are behind, but betting stops the bluffs from taking this pot. Sucks to be here but betting still can win more than checking.

id b/f turn but shove river

Yaah I see no ther way to really play this. We're screwed by QQQ and JJJ anyhow, so might as well make some moneys off AQ/KQ or whatever he has.

Given how deep we are, I definitely 3bet bigger prelop with anything I'm 3betting against him ~$36 or something.

What are we worried about being blown off the pot with if we check? He's likely not going to bet AQ/KQ on the turn. Plus he's potentially scared money, makes it seem very unlikely we're getting bet off here by lesser hands and bluffs.
