i would check-shove here, because with 20bb left and 22 bb in pot i just cant check-fold. also thinking about his range, AK he should shove preflop, AQ is unlikely and calling a 3bet with a worse ace is bad play by him but possible. i think he could easily have a pocket pair under QQ

I'm also interested how to play such postflop situations. With such stack sizes I prefer make 3bet bigger trying to put all my chips in preflop. Especially in this situation when we will be out of position postflop. Sometimes I can just jam pre to get some sorts of AK/AQ, which not going to pay me off if they doesnt hit top pait or something good after the flop.

I think that check to induce bluff and shove will be the best, bc he is never folding ace here when we bet. If he checks behind – just shove any heart turn. But i'm not sure that this is the best possible line.

After MP1 4x opens, I would jam preflop.

+1.

Stack sizes at this blind level are awquard(dont know if I spelled that correctly) for 3bet pre. If stacks were deeper you should be 3betting larger by the way. You have a premium and ur out of pos. Make 3bet 1285-1395 with deeper stacks, but jam pre with this stack after a 4x raise pre.

As played, best play is check shove. I initially thought of the stop and go play but that play may actually look bluffy and he may call off with ace rag.
