The thought of laying down AA on an undercard flop CROSSED my mind.

[Karak567]

But I didn't do it.

Am I an idiot for just taking the minute or so I did to consider it?

Uh, it may be an undercard flop, but thats not a great flop for AA.

Yeah, that's easily one of the worst possible flops for AA.

You should fold, and then pat yourself on the back for making a Hellmuthian laydown.

(Villan only had A high, but that's OK. You are awesome!)

[Karak567]

Oh I know.

But what line do you follow?

Check/fold?

I don't put anyone on AK.

TJ? QJ?

[schwza]

pretty scary flop, but no way you can fold. i'd consider folding if it were JT9 2-tone, but i wouldn't fold that either.

[gumpzilla]

No, but I'm not laying down here to the action you've seen so far. It's pretty unlikely that you're up against AK, so I don't think the straight is out there. Two pair hands are more likely than other times because of this board, but you'll have straight outs, aces and counterfeit outs against those. You also have the backdoor nut flush draw. So you have plenty of outs against the most likely hands that beat you, and have substantial chances of still being ahead. I'm pretty happy with this push. (EDIT: Push because you don't want to give free cards to a K or have your action get killed by a variety of other cards.)

[bjb23]

with just one opponent on the flop, there is just no way id lay this down. instapush.

now, if there were two other players on the flop, i think id have to vomit because this flop is so horrible. given reads, i might lay this down in that case.

[schwza]

against any 2pr you have a ton of outs.

[nWirb]

Even if he has QJ here you are ~42% to win.
I also push and prepare to get sucked out on.

[lastchance]

If there was a bet and raise in front of you on the flop, you very well could lay this down in the $109's.

There's one bet to you in the $33's.

Push.
