MP is pretty solid with fairly tight PFR standards. SB is loose calling station.

Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif, A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, SB calls, Hero calls.

Flop: (6 SB) J/images/graemlins/heart.gif, A/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 6/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP 3-bets</font>, SB folds, Hero calls.

Turn: (6.50 BB) J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP bets</font>, Hero...

Against a solid, tight TAG like this is it +EV to call this BB? I'm dominated by a lot of hands, but with SB coming along and me getting 5:1 for it, it seems ok right?

Of course, then I get in difficult situations like this. Call down or make the fold?

Against that guy I'd give it up on the turn. But close call/fold in BB imho. With a tight SB I'd fold, here I'd probably call as well. /v

Is MP aggressive enough to bet a king high flush draw on the turn or would he definitely check behind with it? Is your table image such that you might fold a pair of aces here? Given those circumstances I could definitely see a calldown being profitable here.

However, against an opponent not aggressive enough to do those things (many TAGs at 5/10 6max aren't) folding is the best play.

Yeah, I'd definitely give up here. You're often drawing dead/slim to a split.

There are 2 or 3 (KQ/images/graemlins/heart.gif, KT/images/graemlins/heart.gif, K9/images/graemlins/heart.gif) ways he's goig to be on that hand and many more he will be on A better kicker.

Meh, my image is pretty solid at this table so far. I really don't think MP is paying enough attention to tell if I would fold an A. He's pretty ABC from what I've seen so far, and come to think of it I can't really imagine him 3-betting an underpair like QQ. Doesn't look like there's much I'm beating here in retrospect now that the J's paired up and my 9 outs are no good. I'm thinking fairly easy fold now.
