Watching a hand from BB Jax WPTDS

SB:2mil: AA
CO:1.1 mil: K7dd

blinds were 20k-40kk CO raises with k7 to 110k, Sb 3bets to 240k. Is it optimal to 3bet, or should we be flatting here?

3bet seems optimal with information given. If CO has a very high cbet percentage (or other specific and exploitable tendencies) then it may be better to flat knowing that he will be over cbetting and we can exploit.

You should almost always be 3betting your AA in this spot

You are likely to be 3-betting a lot from the SB and it doesn't look that strong versus a CO raise. 3-bet sizing is small, but probably good here as you don't want to put in a big portion of CO's stack with a bluff or a big hand.

If hero was in BB with AA, then I like the flat. As stated with AA in SB, 3B small is optimal since I don't want to price BB in and be 3 way OOP.

You want to 3-bet to build the pot and try to induce a shove. Getting out the BB is not a big plus with this sort of hand.

If you were in the BB, it wouldn't be a clear flat at all.

The sizing is maybe a little too small, as a little larger is better for representing a bluff and inducing a shove. The 3b looks weak in this situation, but going so small with AA seems like it might tip your hand a little.
