1) Called preflop with AQ against this guy who made a tiny 3b pre.
2) feel like calling flop and turn was good- good be against draws or smaller Q.
3) folded river even though no draws got there- didnt have any info to know if hes capable of big bluff there, took a note. I think I'm losing too often to AA KK QQ 77 1010.

His preflop 3-bet was tiny and he only bet a third of the pot on the flop. Raise that up.

big pots with aq

I am not a fan of trying to build up a big pot with AQ preflop- in general in my experience at the small stakes Aq tends to be a hand with alot of reverse implied odds.

What would you do if opener 4bet?

I was talking about raising the flop. No issues with the preflop coldcall.

Oh ya sorry misread you. I dunno. I could agree with that in that I would be getting called by flush draws- i think i would fold to a 4bet in that situation. On the other hand what I said about pre also applies on the flop- that its not the best idea to build a huge pot with just TPTK.- by calling i could just pot control in position, letting him continue bluffing and decide on a big river bet should it coome..
