Stars $11... a bit too much...
 
BB and UTG are playing fast and loose... any A in any position is good. I wasn't paying close enough attention to how little I was check-raising all-in for on the turn. I may have been able to dump it on the flop, but let's focus on the turn. I guess I'm looking for comments on my C/R and how much of a stack I probably should have had before I pulled that one. It made me sick when he sat there until time ran out, called the time bank, and called with 2 seconds left <font color=" white">and his shitty A6o held up</font>.

Fold flop? No need to draw here.

Honestly, it can be a good play at higher levels, but the way this hand and opponent look, he has an Ace fairly often, and will be calling when he does, even against larger checkraises.

I think you have odds to just call on the turn, with the combination of your flush draw, 2-pair/trips draw, and the chance you are ahead... plus the fact that he will pay off your two pair/trips often and maybe your flush.

Oh, but before that, I think I fold to his flop minraise unless he will do that with air.

Yeah, I forgot to mention that I've seen him do this.

That changes a lot actually, since you have reason to believe you're ahead on the turn.

I still like calling over the c/r though.

Then on the river, check call if you don't improve to catch bluffs, and bet out if you do improve, hoping he has the Ace.
