I gotta say that I fold this pre. But I will say that when I'm running 35/30 or 30/20 and I'm OTB and blinds 3 bet I'm calling IP most of the time with SC's for the following reasons:
1) A large portion of there range they are B/Folding to a pretty small bluffraise, and they are never 3bet bluffing.
2) Tag's at my stakes have a horrible tendency to C-bet 3bet pots and c/f turns, so floating becomes very profitable.
3) Flopping combo draws, and playing them fast help get sets paid off.
4) Flopping Two Pair and Trips, and stacking them on A/K high boards.

Basically what I mean is people always turn there hands face up in 3bet pots, so exploit it IP.

If you believe that, then you really have to believe that he's not shoving with AQ here that often: AQ has showdown value but not much shove-for-value against our range.

After I read Pokey's awesome post, I turned into a station. I put my opponents on wider-than-realistic ranges in order to "stop being weak-tight". I am trying to adjust, and maybe now my ranges are too narrow.

But either way, I'm not being weak-tight (by Pokey's definition), as long as I'm basing my decision based on my read on villain's range.


EDIT: On second thought, yes folding is very weak-tight, because we are getting 2.5 to 1, and I think there are some bluffs in his range. But I still think villain is not shoving AQ very often here.
