Was I right to call the 3bet rather than placing a 4bet? My concern is that if I get 5bet where do I go from there? I don't see any other hand than AA being willing to stack off pre-flop.

No, not many hands on players as I've recently just started playing NL10 on PokerStars

5bet would suck but if it only happens w AA it will be rare, think of all the hands that will call 4bet because we are deep. Imo the value of 4betting outweighs the risk of getting 5bet.

I'm not praticularly fond of playing for stacks on 200bb deep at 10NL, and I don't think we should 4Bet fold, but 4Bet has just the best value here.

According to the way you played preflop, raising on the flop doesn't make any sense to me.
