Help, please.

SB is a little loose, somewhat aggressive (I thought). Notice also the short-stack of UTG+2. I could have raised the flop with no fear of a re-raise from him. I feared check-raise from SB.
How would you have played and why? thanks.

what are you doing capping AJs?

what's the problem though?

The pot is big on the flop. A raise may have run out the TT.
The cap is probably wrong. But in this game, it can't be terribly wrong I don't think.

I think the flop is raise or fold. Like you said you dont have to worry about the better reraising and you might knock out SB. If the SB calls the 2 bets then Im puttin him on QQ.

I swear I have been amazed at how good the 3/6 games are. Nice game selection dude. As far as the hand goes it all looks fine except for the preflop cap.
