Consider villain unknown. Only seen him for about 40 hands now, though over those 40 hands he has been somewhat donkish playing at 56/26/4.8

I've seen him raise to my right pretty often, but I haven't seen him 3-bet anyone yet, and I haven't seen him get out of line at all. Mostly just playing a lot of hands.

Cryptologic
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.50/$1
6 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $112.50
Hero: $178.21
CO: $47.87
Button: $38.75
SB: $93.75
BB: $55

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is UTG+1 with
UTG calls, Hero raises to $4, 2 folds, SB calls, BB folds, UTG raises to $11, Hero raises to $33, SB folds, UTG raises to $71, Hero blah??

Doesn't villain's line here scream aces?

limping from UTG and re-raising, which at this level at least, often means Aces/Kings.

I 4-bet him, and he RE-raises on top of that, and its not even a push. I can't see many hands that would play like that, aside from aces/ kings or maybe AK, but not often at this level.

I think it's aces a lot, but you already have 1/3 of stacks in...
KK vs AA is 20%, and I don't think I can exclude QQ, maybe AK/bluffs, enough to fold at this point.
still, I don't think it's a big deal either way since it looks a lot like aa.

If I am villain then just push because I have AK here everytime.

Usually it's sooted so pray for a rainbow flop.
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

Should I just flat call villain's limp-raise, in the first place, since I have position?

Or is re-raising here PF the best play?
