Are you willing to play this hand if there is a 4-bet after you?
You have to invest nearly 1/3 of your stack for this not so great holding.
Button and SB cover you, BB may push too because he is the shortie.
AJ o may be a call/fold vs squeeze , AQo/S call jam vs squeeze.
3-bet broke moves are JJ+ AKo/s

The issue with 3 betting AToff is better AX calls and worse AX folds- calling sucks if we hit an ace are we good or no? Calling also sucks if it goes multiway
I usually default fold in this spot but call the suited I never expect to 3 bet get folds but if it was possible, 25% of the time I would 3 bet.:unsure::geek:

Thank you for the replies. I indeed fold because I agree with Goggelheimer and eetenor that only the better Ax will call me there and I would need a lot of help from the board to win this, also there are a lot of players that need to act after me.

Its a very large open compared to your stack size, your hand is not suited, you will often flop a dominated pair, and you have 4 more players left to act behind, who can squeeze. For all those reasons calling is not profitable. Its also not a good spot for a light 3-bet, since you are to deep to 3-bet jam and to shallow to 3-bet small without committing a significant percentage of your stack. So calling is not profitable, and 3-betting is not profitable, which only leave folding.

wtf is this logic.
better ace shoves, worse ten calls vs 3bet
call and fold is fine too, i like to mostly 3bet this

edit; basically what im saying is you arent dominated like you are thinking, depends on a customer what we want to do really imo

The point is even fish just fold weak AX hands when we 3 bet at a high frequency so we do not have enough value targets to make the AT a good 3 bet---why? when playing for stacks post flop AT sucks unless we hit two pair plus or the V is terrible.

We study to learn to not play each street thinking of only that street or that bet -we want to expand to think of preflop as the foundation to our further street play--

If however you are going to get lots of over folds to 3 bets pre and passive over folding post then yes absolutely throw in AT and 45s etc etc

Generally I would not call or play this hand, because I estimate that the opponent has something very strong and that's why he rises preflop so much.
