PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $2.00 BB (6 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

CO ($215)
Hero (Button) ($233.15)
SB ($269.05)
BB ($199.75)
UTG ($66)
MP ($738.05)

Preflop: Hero is Button with A, Q
1 fold, MP raises to $6, CO calls $6, Hero calls $6, 2 folds

Flop: ($21) 6, 8, 10 (3 players)
MP bets $12, 1 fold, Hero calls $12

Turn: ($45) K (2 players)
MP bets $28, Hero raises to $68

PF: I don't like 3betting here vs. his MP range and I think I can get more value from KQ, Ax type hands and float him to be more profitable. I also wanted to keep CO in who is a losing but not terrible player.

Mp is vs. Minetta a decent reg who will double barrel a lot, especially scare cards. His range could be a set, air, overpairs. I'm not sure if he bets a king if he connects here, but he does seem to bet this turn enough that he probably does for balance

He views me as being TAGish without a particularly tricky image so far, as I have been calling him down thin rather than fighting back with aggression so I expect to get some credit.

I'd generally raise pre-flop in this situation for three reasons. First, I squeeze quite frequently, so to a smart player raising doesn't necessarily imply a strong hand. Second, I prefer to play AQ hu. Third, it kind of buys a K on the flop, as most will fold to a c-bet on a K-high flop if you have reraised preflop.
