Re: A hand I know others here play differently
How often are people calling your turn push with AJ, AT? I'm guessing not that often. The backdoor draw doesn't really intimidate me, and I'm thinking that if you're ahead your opponent is drawing to three outs (occasionally five, but I don't think that happens very often). So I don't get the turn push here, unless people are still sufficiently donkish that dominated aces and the occasional K will call. The rest of the hand I'm fine with. EDIT: And yes, I'm ignoring metagame issues that suggest that since WAWB is probably the standard way to play AQ here in your shoes, he might call with less because he reads you for something different, but I don't think that's a very big factor unless you know this guy really well. Again, I don't know how you guys do things in the 215s.
