Default Poor AA shove?

I didnt want to make this play. But im so attached to AA
Im concerned about trips, flush draws, 2pairs, and straights
Poker Stars $0.05/$0.10 No Limit Hold'em - 6 players
The Official DeucesCracked.com Hand History Converter

MP: $30.25
Hero (CO): $21.40
BTN: $8.70
SB: $10.30
BB: $15.30
UTG: $10.00

Pre Flop: ($0.15) Hero is CO with A A
2 folds, Hero raises to $0.40, BTN calls $0.40, SB calls $0.35, 1 fold

Flop: ($1.30) 7 9 8 (3 players)
SB bets $1, Hero raises to $3.30, BTN folds, SB raises to $9.90 all in, Hero calls $6.60

Turn: ($21.10) K (2 players - 1 is all in)

River: ($21.10) Q (2 players - 1 is all in)

This is totally villain dependent.

This board being so drawy means I wouldn't let this go (unless villain is very nitty) as opposed to wat dansiek said. So played fine imo.

Well when the board is so drawy, it means SB can be shoving various draws/combo draws which we must call against. ie overs and flush draw, straight and flush draw etc. Including all the possible combo draws in our opponents range means we are forced more towards a call. If the flop came 3c 5s 8d for example, this flop is so dry that if SB takes this line we're really not beating much since SB's range is more narrow on this flop and contains a greater % of sets. That's not saying I'd fold even on a super dry board since its villain dependent but folding is a more feasible option the drier the board is.

Ok i see where you're coming from now

Maybe i was being too scared that villain had already hit, but i agree it is just as feasible that he has a draw than a made hand.

I think the only thing I'm concerned about on the flop is JT b/c people love to play JT in almost any position to almost any raise. Without knowing much about the villian, I make the same play.

In a vacuum, I play the same. In my experience, a passive player would often slowplay monsters (which of course is horrible) so this flop action weighs his range more towards lesser hands. A more aggressive player would do this with loads of draws. Against twopair we have 30% equity.
