No reads in either hands.
I never know how to play AJo. Do you raise from EP, what about MP and LP? Ever limp with it? I've been trying all sorts of different approaches and haven't decided which is the most profitable.

Hand 1: This was an interesting hand. It has been my experience that players who 3 bet a PF raiser (when heads up) from the BB often times have a mid pocket pair. This is what I put him on, although I didn't limit him to to this holding.

<font color="CC3333">BB bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls.

I sort of used the K as bluff card and if I was reraised I could easily muck. I also put in this raise to get a free showdown if I hit a jack or ace on the river.

River: (8.25 BB) J/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, Hero checks.

Final Pot: 8.25 BB

Maybe a bet would have been more appropriate here.
