$10 NL HE 6-max: AQs plan after 4bet

poker stars $0.05/$0.10 No Limit Hold'em - 6 players

BB: $1.60
UTG: $8.95
MP: $10.00
Hero (CO): $12.05
BTN: $16.85
SB: $16.40

Pre Flop: ($0.15) Hero is CO with Q:diamond: A:diamond:
UTG raises to $0.20, 1 fold, Hero raises to $0.50, 2 folds, BB raises to $1, UTG calls $0.80, Hero....

UTG is 80/4 fish over 40-50 hands

BB is pretty much all in, so I'm not sure if I should have even 3b this preflop or what I should be doing now

When a weak passive 80/4 fish raises, what sort of range do you think has ?

I honestly am not sure how much faith to put in the 4 PFR after 40 hands, but seeing as he's UTG I figured it was closer to the top of his range.

Folding AQs verse him IP felt wrong, maybe call behind is better considering he probably doesn't fold to the 3bet ever.

Uh, ya?

AQs hits a lot of flops. And if you call, you invite all the other retards into the hand with A7o, QT, and other hands you crush. 3-betting here is like, omg bad. Call, play a small pot in position unless you make a hand stronger than 1 pair.

Don't 4 bet passive players

They fold all bad hands and call with a fairly decent range.

Basically you are way ahead of his range with lots of money left to go if you don't 4-bet.

If you do 4-bet you are likely against a hand that will be difficult to play post flop. The pot is now so big that you basically have to shove the flop.

If he hits a K with something like KT then he calls otherwise he likely folds.

Your edge is just bigger without the 4 bet.
