Raise more pf. $5.50 min, I round up to $6.

May be bad answer but I stack off here. I think it's good because AQ, and strong draws are in his range. I think it's bad because he's 1.7 AF.

Raise more PF, and I push here. AQ or some combo draw more likely than a set.

Agreed. Since you are raising his raise, you got to put more in if you expect him to fold, 3x is a solid number. I'd push also, but no one has considered AA yet. Very possible. Really you'd have to have a read. Yeah, he's tight, but how does he play big pairs? Most important question. Alot of guys like this would call the $8 on the flop with AA and let you bet for them, so he's prob got AQ and put you on AK. These tight guys get angry when they think they're getting bullied and try to push out draws with big bets. As I said, I'm all in.

Pre-flop is fine IMHO.

I'm all-in.

I don't worry about this problem because I give up too much value to loose raises and second best hands if I don't routinely felt this in the games I play.

Also, raising more pre-flop makes it easier for the sorts of hands I want to gamble with to fold.
