    I would 3bet pre personally, a c/o unopened raising range is wide so good chance u have best hand (especially at these stakes im guessin) if called lead out on most flops & win money! - obv in this instant he would call pre flop top set so your gonna get called, so just shutdown. 

    I aint a massive fan of just callin oop with AJ i guess you could argue 3bettin pre folds out weaker aces & buildin pots oop is never great but id still rather take that route rather than just call-miss most flops, check and get taken off!

    I would discourage 3-betting pre without reads RKO. The reasons for this is, is because only better will call from most opponents or we are flipping.

    Post flop on this hand is appauling imo. Why do you think you A high is good, the guy re-raised you on the turn thats enough to tell anyone A high isnt good, ok he can do that with AK and thats the worst he can do it with.

    Even on the river you dont actually beat much for the way this hand is played. So many opportunities to not lose money here.

    this makes no sense at all to me. flipping? im not on about shovin the whole stack in!!....

    why would u discourage 3bettin? AJ is v possibly ahead of villians c/o openin range by 3 bettin it gives us another way to win the pot with aggression if we both miss flop. he doesnt always have 10-10 or does he always flop a set.

    callin is fine pre if thats how u want to play it, but like i said i aint massive fan of just callin oop, because we miss too many flops and we cant rep much - so we check, villian bets and we lose a pot we cud have possibly won if we showed a bit more aggresion

    If we 3-bet what is calling us?

    AQ+ and Pocket Pairs.

    So at best if we 3-bet we are in a flip situation. Worse doesnt call even with posision

    If we flat and miss any part of the flop as we did, we can get away.
