    Default Simple question

    You are UTG at a standard $25 NL table where nothing crazy has been happening. You have AQ suited and make a standard raise. The small blind reraises you a healthy amount - let's say you made it .85 and he makes it 3.00. He is running 50/8/1.4. Effective stacks are 80 BBs ($20).

    Fold, call, or raise?

    I don't think raising lets you play your hand any better post-flop, since a lot of guys are flatting the 4-bet with KK,AA,AK.
    Since I don't feel good about almost any flop, I think I fold here.

    I'm only raising if I want to play for stacks preflop. If this is his first 3 bet than I fold.
