Flop play looks fine.

I'd be inclined to fold the turn.
Reasons:
I don't like the turn push at all.
I don't think you can just call the turn because you can never call a river push so you may as well save yourself 200.
Since this is stars your stack is deep enough that you might want to just min reraise the turn.

I think you should just let this go.

Why are you raising the turn if you think he has just a lone ace?

Push is dumb because he never folds an Q/K and will fold an A a number of times.

yeah as soon as i posted the hand, i realized that..., which is pretty terrible.

i think a call is could be right because i think any number of other PPs come along for this ride, although after the flop call, i'm really not sure. probably shoulda laid this guy down.

Unless that smell is booze on SB's breath, it's time for JJ to back off.

although... the sweet irony of all this is that i got called by A6o. which is hilarious.

but hey, we're not being results oriented here [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
