No-Limit Hold'em, $2.00 BB (10 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

UTG+1 ($269.85)
UTG+2 ($198)
MP1 ($232.35)
MP2 ($195.20)
MP3 ($745.80)
CO ($71.80)
Button ($242.85)
Hero (SB) ($209.85)
UTG ($196)

Preflop: Hero is SB with A, A
2 folds, MP1 raises $8, 2 folds, CO raises $20, 1 fold, Hero ????

MP1 was running at around 11/5 over 200 hands. I wondered about call the 3bet from CO trying to trap MP1. However, that would just give him pretty nice odds for him to set mine with a high pair. If villain was a donk, then a call is definitevely the best.
Raise > Call ?

what is your read on CO? If the only way you're going to get any money from MP1 is when he flops a set postflop then you should be overplaying your hand here.

I like a raise over a call although I have no idea what the correct raise size should be. I'm torn between minRR and shoving although I'm sure there is a correct amount in between.

What other hands are you cold-calling with in this spot?
So you click their picture and then you get their money?

i'd raise to 50 and settle for just getting the COs money cause i'm pretty sure MP1 is folding...

CO is going all in or folding...

but then again i've only played 1/2 NL about five times a long long time ago so....

isolate the CO with JJ+, AK. Against two loose fullstacks yeah obviously throw in bluffs but in other circumstances it is often suicide

The guy is sitting with $71... he probably isn't a regular so worrying about balancing your range in this spot is pretty pointless. I would stick in a raise, I highly doubt he is capable of folding anything decent after putting a decent percentage of his stack in already.
