No real read on the table, seems pretty normal
Is this a weak fold or just common sense? Any suggestions, i just cant decide if i should let these go.

It's not a terrible fold, if you strongly suspect him for an A or a Q.

I'd probably raise just to see what he does and bail if he 3-bets.

Yeah lots of players will bet their gutshots, flush draws etc. The fold is not very bad though. Find a better spot.

What would you do if he just calls the raise?

bad idea. you're OOP and WAAAB if he does have either card.

to OP: i like to bet and see what happens/how many people hold on. the turn would be read-dependent. i also thought about a check/call line, but i don't think i'm folding here especially with BDFD, both my Jaxs are goot, and .5 outs if a K or T fall.

Agree. I think a bet here for info is better than just folding.

My assumption on the flop is that I'm behind...I call the flop, then fold unless I catch a J or /images/graemlins/diamond.gif on the turn. That may be a little weak, but in the absence of a good read on the table, I'm giving MP1 credit for an A or Q here.
