Weird spot in my local 1/2 game. I believe we are 7-handed at this point. I've been at the table for about one hour. Table is pretty aggressive. I've already seen several big pots being dragged.

Hero: Early 30's white male. Played a pretty significant hand earlier where I doubled up. I 3bet with AcKc in the SB and got called in two spots. Shoved on a J72r when SPR was <1. My shove was called by BOTH Vs. I rivered a lone K to scoop. Neither player involved in the hand in question was in this pot, but both witnessed it. So my image may be a little gambly.

V1: Late 30s Asian male. He's played in the room before, but can't recall a lot about him. Very quiet. In the little action I've seen tonight, he's been pretty aggressive. Raising pre, but not necessarily overdoing it yet, straddling, etc. Often applies pressure when he senses weakness post flop. Although he's been active, I haven't seen him over bet a pot yet. Likewise, he hasn't had to showdown anything yet.

V2: Late 50s Asian male. Quiet, more on the conservative side.

Hero has $600. Both Vs cover.

V1 raises to $15 in the CO. V2 calls on BTN. Hero calls with AcQd in BB.

Flop ($46): Ah, Kh, 2s

Hero checks, V1 bets $75, V2 folds, Hero?

Are we ok with the flat pre? How often do we 3bet here? Do we ever lead the flop? But what in the world does this over bet signify?

AQo is a tough hand to play OOP 300bb deep. I'd fold pre. Maybe squeeze to $80 some of the time.

I don't think he's overbetting into 2 players as a bluff OTF. I'd fold.

If you fold, that means you're folding everything but 22. That feels pretty bad to me. Basically you can only fold exploitatively against this V, and you've seen nothing to indicate this couldn't be a flush draw, weak Ace or even complete air. Given the propensity of Asian men to make terrible aggressive plays, I'm calling and check raising him on the turn if no heart, J or 10 comes. I would check/fold the former and check/evaluate the latter.

I agree to sometime 3! this, but other times, I might just fold from oop. As played, I just fold. His big bet could mean a lot of things (protecting, drawing, bluffing), but until I know what, it's not really worth it on this board.

If you call, what card to you want to see on the turn? If you raise (yuck), what do you do if he re-raises? Neither choice is very pretty.

Bump before it falls to Page 2. Hoping for a couple more opinions before I post results.

Don't think you're gonna get much more for whatever reason. Results?

I tank folded. It felt weak, but as javanewt alluded to, if I called the flop what am I going to do when he fires $125-150 on the turn. What turn card do I want to see?

I didn't see the OB coming. If I had the spot over, I'd most likely 3-bet pre.
