    Well considering picking Mario is +EV, I think you should rethink your statement

    call flop and get it in on any turn
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    Is there any reason this is better than just pushing the flop?

    it lets ak commit more money when you check-raise all in on turn

    but you're right. pushing flop is fine. AK will prob still pay you off

    flattin ur 4bets, makin u tilt
    just go all in. If turn is scary for AA, it will be even scarier for AK.

    Since I sized my 3-bet preflop so that he wasn't getting the right implied odds to call and hit a set, I didn't have a problem with getting all-in here. Just wondering if there was something I missed. Thanks.

    I would have rr more preflop if I'm going to 4bet here and in a raised/re-raised/re-raised pot I never can get away from aces.
