It's tempting to fold the turn here. It looks like you're up against an overpair at least, and possibly a flush.

Yeah when a weak tighty raises a scary board after being bet into on 2 streets, you've got to be concerned - this isn't KJ very often.

Allright. I would CR the flop. Should he 3-bet Im calling down. I really dont like the turn donk. As you played it I think you can fold the turn.

Grunching as requested:

Against a tricky player, I'd call down, because I'd hate to make a hard decision against a possible bluff raise, and calling down gets us to showdown for the same cost as check-raising the turn. In addition, it induces tricky players to bluff more hands that we beat, like middle pair or a weak J.

Check-raising the turn doesn't fold anything that beats us. Flushes will 3-bet us, and a 9 has odds to call in hopes of boating up. It might fold a J, but we beat or tie any of those anyway.

Against a straightforward player, I'd donk the turn and fold to a raise. If he just calls, check the turn to either induce a bluff or get a free showdown. I don't think we're ahead of enough hands to value bet here, but I haven't stoved it. I

After reading the other posts, I realized that I forgot the flop action.

I don't like check-raising the flop. I think bet/3-bet gets us in better shape to decide on the turn and folds the button on this semi-drawy flop. If it is capped, I'm thinking overpair. If not, we are in better shape. Then if he wakes up and bets again, we know it means much more.

grunch...

check raise the flop.

Fold preflop. Pound these players with a better hand, if you were suited the call would be fine.

What's so great about AJo here? I think calling is marginal, and this hand will be hard to play correctly postlop.
