Re: Friend\'s PPNL200 baby set.
No way I fold this because if I did, I start crying like a little girl the times my opponents flip over AA,KK,QQ, or even a horribly overplayed AT and I would have won a huge pot.

Maybe I'm clueless, or just weak tight, but if villain is solid and raising from UTG, why not just muck AQ pre-flop? What hands could he be raising with that you beat? You also have terrible...
