Standard AQ gutshot raise?

[bilbo-san]

I think this is standard but just want to make sure I am not misapplying any concepts /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Does anyone think this is a bad raise?

I think I might just call here and fold the turn UI. Reason being that I only have 1 overcard and 1 of the A outs puts a 3-flush on the board. Same goes for the gutshot. This, in no way is standard but can be used versus passive players that you don't think will 3-bet or stop-n-go.

we've got to assume UTG+2 has the king here... That being said you have at least 3 Ten's that give you the nuts (spade puts down the 3rd of a flush) and potentially 4 aces, but I'd discount that to 3 because of the space again, and the potential of an ace helping someone out. 6 outs... so you should either call/raise for sure. I'd go with call, I don't think we have equity here to raise. Hope for the button to overcall and for a good turn card. Fold to a bet on the turn if unimproved.

I like it. You bought the button and earned your free card on the turn.

But if I can get something like A7 or ATo to fold, that would be a coup. Even And the possibility of getting the button and the free card are very enticing -- with a draw this marginal it would be nice to peel off two cards.

Getting 12:1 on the flop, I really MUST call. Doesn't raising improve my chance of winning?

Perhaps, anyone with more experience have an opinion of what should be done?
