Default AJs from UTG+1.......... Comments?

Stars .25/.50

*FYI: SB is the Villain from my JJ post here earlier*

I'm UTG+1 with A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

UTG folds, I call (Is it EVER correct to raise with this hand from EP?), MP1 folds, MP2 calls, CO folds, button calls, SB complets, BB calls.

FLOP: Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

SB checks, BB checks, I bet, MP1 raises, folded to BB who calls, I call. At this point I was thinking that MP1 had A4o, as most of these players will play any ace, yet most don't raise with them.

TURN: 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

BB checks, I check, MP1 bets, BB calls, I call.

RIVER: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

BB checks, I check, MP1 bets, BB calls, I overcall......

Should I have 3-bet the flop or raised the turn or river here? Any comments on my play? I felt like I shoulda showed some aggression someplace......

Results later

pre-flop call: good.

flop: fine. if you want to continue being aggressive with this hand, do so on the turn when you can charge a gutshot and make his call incorrect, if he calls at all.

i think you played it okay overall.

I'd raise PF nearly everytime with AJs. AJo is another story that has been argued both sides.

I'd re-raise on the flop, if he pops back at me then i can more easily put him on two pair. You said it yourself - they play any ace. I wouldn't give him the 4 quite yet.

I would generally raise with AJs and call with AJo, but I don't think calling with AJs is bad. It plays well multiway and keeping people in in-case you flop a flush draw can't be that bad.
