Default Re: Is there a better way to play this?

Villian min-raised then reraised heavily. I've read many posts here that say this is an indicator of AA or KK, but this is contrary to my experience at the low buy-in tables at PP (I don't have experience at PokerRoom). I see this type of action frequently with the villian showing AJ or worse at the $11 tables. The fact that villian has not yet played a hand worries me a bit, but I'm still inclined to either call his preflop RR or push in over top. I'd call in this situation as you did.

With the two suited flop, you now have only 4 outs to the A or K that you really like, and these may even be poor outs as they make a likely 2 pair for villian. I would fold the flop as you did.

I'm interested in other thoughts on this hand as I would make the same play you did, but it feels a little weak.
