We have a small sample on BB of 19 hands in which he plays 11/11(we go completely readless) but i think AAxx is on top of his range here(would love to read your thoughts though)

His bet sizing and decision to bet OOP on flop is interesting. He 3-bet from BB pre also.
I would bet flop ~>1/2 pot in this example as BB, having naked KK, or AAKBhh hand.
I am not too excited with this flop (bottom 2 with nut gutter on flop with 2 hearts) and I would be thinking to MAYBE call in ring game (depends lot upon opponent), but in rush poker - I am folding it without thinking as people are somewhat tighter in rush, and their (3-betting pre + c-betting flop OOP) range is pretty narrow as I see it..
I would fold, escape cheaply and move on.

First things first, AA can't be the top of his range even if it's all he 3-bets because he gets side cards and they could be KK for all we know.

However, with regards to how to play this hand, I have two comments:

1) The preflop open is a little loose. It's not terrible 'cas you're double-suited, but in general I'd probably be folding this hand more often than not, especially at a table where I had no reads.

2) We have position so I would call once here. There's a decent chance villain will shut down, thus allowing us to realise our equity/potentially use some cards to push him off whatever equity he has. It's also nice that he hasn't made it very expensive for us.

Note: I edited this post 'cas I originally treated us as if we were OOP postflop which was dumb.

Thanks for the responses guys.Given we have position on both villains but we pretty much worry about BB here,don't you think we have plenty of equity against his range to fold flop?Below is a quick calc.of our hand vs his range feel free to discuss and disagree:)
