| Fold, unless you know this opponent to be a maniac or an extremely loose raiser. In most circumstances, I probably wouldn't have raised, or called the re-raise pre-flop. His re-raise screams "Big Pair." He wouldn't 3-bet with AK or AQ. Run for the exits. | ||

| Hi Tron The answer to this question is a function of your opponent...What is the range of hands you think he will three bet you with....If it includes AK and AQ or he is an aggressive player you will NOT want to fold this hand on the flop....If he is tight and would only make that play with a big wired pair then you should fold the flop That said, the correct play on the flop is also a function of how your opponent will react to how you play your hand on the flop.....If he is likely to play back at you without a big pair, you will probably want to check-call him down...If a raise on your part would define his hand I would raise him on the flop and see what happens....It is a tough spot...One easy to make a mistake on....Sometimes the best decision is just an educated guess.

| I say you bet-out that flop as many players will 3-bet with AK or AQ. If you get raised, then you can be pretty sure you are beat and fold. However, if this is an action player who bluffs a lot, you might just call him down if you are in doubt. | ||
