You have aces, the best hand preflop. You should probably play them straightforward and 3bet preflop unless you have some great read that he always folds to 3bets, or you know how to outplay him and get much more on the flop. If you don't 3bet, you should still raise the flop, as it's fairly unlikely that he has an 8 as he raised preflop (indicating that he most likely has high cards). The only hand you are really afraid of is 33, or A8 if he's an aggro fish.
You want to get the money in as soon as possible while you are still most likely to be ahead with a big pocket pair like this. Otherwise people get to chase their draws too cheaply and this sort of thing happens.
well becouse he raised that big, i put him on a big set or some hight cards like u sayd so .i call hes raises that i considerd are big enought to want me to get sucked in so i let him bet waiting for good moment to try a semi bluf with a short bet and wait for hes rerarise to go all in winning but nop..didnt work like that
