Raise more preflop is going to be a common response, and I can understand why. Im out of the BB and raise to 4xBB and there are 3 limpers in the pot, a bigger raise probably would have been better but I dont think it made a big difference, if you disagree please say so.

Anyways, I raise and get one call. Flop comes pretty coordinated and I bet the pot [after rake]. Villain minraises me to about $6, any standard sized 3bet is going to make me pot committed, so I simply push. There are going to be a lot of scare cards on the turn, so I want to simply get the money in here. I only had about 20 hands on villain so I cant judge much based on that, but he was aggressive postflop.

Against an opponent who has shown aggression postflop before, how do you respond when holding aces on a coordinated board?

Raise more pre-flop. $2 is much better. $1.50 is mandatory.

Post-flop is fine. I'm OK with getting it all in here against an aggressive player at PArty's 25NL. He could easily be way behind you, so without a closer read I'm fine with this.
