It's not at all interesting. It's a very simple math/logic problem.

What are your thoughts on folding JJ /AK/AQs here and taking the risk of letting UTG ($1500) wake up with a hand and stack villian before I can?

It seems to me, that this is the point that makes this hand interesting. Clearly, you are +EV against this guys likely range here, and if it were just you, him and a bunch of tiny stacks, then it would make much more sense to just wait for AA/KK/QQ and have him crushed for his stack. However, with another big stack out there, you might not get the chance to wait that long.

Personally, I think I just beat him into the pot, and let the chips fall where they may. He's gonna spew off that big stack pretty soon and I want it so I'm going to go after it. If he wins, then so be it. But then again, I don't always have the highest regard for money when I play anyway. [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

I thought so as I think the majority of those here do as well.

Agreed. Don't we all fold AQ and wait him out if we're the only big stacks? There wouldn't be much sense in calling with ace high when on average every orbit he's putting 2 1/2 buyins in the middle with whateverthefk. But since UTG(who surely has lowered his calling range against villian) is drooling to stack him, I took my chance before he could.

I called.

He had A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and yes, he hit a flush. Dem's the breaks.

Calling is the correct move I believe, but I have a feeling he has something like AJ and will spike a flush.

Figures. That's how it would probably go for me too, but I still think you made the right play. Make sure to buddy-list him, and you'll get it back soon enough.
