Final Pot: $70.92

This hand is from a couple days ago when I was trying to re-adjust myself to the 100BB stacks. I think I should have raised more on the flop, but what do you do on this turn? This person was pretty loose, QK was a definite possibility, but I could also see AJ or AT or maybe AK calling the flop for just the gutshot. She was a pretty bad player. Do you fold this?

I wouldn't fold this in a million years, especially given your analysis.

There are 16 ways to have KQ, 12 ways to have AK, and 9 ways each to have AT &amp; AJ. Thus, the odds are against the straight.

So the range of hands is probably much wider than you thought.
Also, I think a typical Party player is more likely to raise from the BB when he/she is holding an Ace.

Final note, I would raise preflop with TT on the Button.

actually I think I should take AK out because I'm pretty sure she would have raised it, even from the SB. I don't know that many party players (except super passive ones) that don't raise AK. When I called I was hoping for AJ or AT, but I had this extreme nagging feeling I was going to be shown QK, which I'm sure it's fairly obvious she did have.

Even taking AK out, you are looking at a coinflip (where you are the slight favorite), and there's a significant amount of dead money in the pot. Still gotta call, it is +EV.
