I had AQ utg and i raised to a dollar. All folded to the button, who raised to 3 dollars. Just sat down so no numbers on the guy. Suspecting it's an easy fold. What do you guys do in this situation.

He's telling you he can beat an UTG raise, I doubt he has a hand you can beat. Fold, watch him on all further BTNs.

Give it up PF unless you know the guy is a LAG. You're out of position against a hand that may dominate yours in your situation.

That's what happens when you don't keep the initiative with AK/AQ OOP. Calling is way worse than 4-betting or folding.

Major point here, though I lean much more towards folding with AQ just because you're also getting sooper fooked by AK. Remember that you're just as unknown to him as he is to you. He saw an unknown raise from UTG and opted to reraise. Folding should be your default here.
