Pre flop : Is the call ok? Is this a viable spot for a re-raise? Is a fold even an option as I've oft found the AQ to be the most impertinent of hands and rarely does what it's told.

Flop : Got to bet it right? Villain's call had alarm bells ringing but my guess was flush draw.

Turn : Got to bet again right? But then the scoundrel fires a re-raise at me and I'm in a qundary. I've no tells on the player other than he hasn't done anything spectacular in the short time I was at the table. So what does his pre limp-call mean? Suited connectors? Small pair? I just dunno.

Thoughts?

    it is a strong raise on the turn, it looks to me like he has either flopped a small flush or has a set and his raise may be in case he puts you on flush draw, either way you have to fold here imo

    Preflop is ok.

    Flop good solid bet with TPTK.

    Turn another decent bet, the 8 changes nothing from what I can see so it's basically a slow played set or the flopped flush, but no-one flops them right....? You still have TPTK and this is one up from 4NL so he could have anything. But from what I found at these levels when ever a player raises and especially big like this they ususaulyl have the nuts or are at least beating top pair, hence I'd make a you bloody (swear word) fold followed by so sick typed in the chat box.
