Default Re: Out of line line with AJs in blinds?

SSHE states, and it has been reiterated on this board, that building the pot is not always the correct way to play a draw, especially if you have additional over cards that win you the pot. My hand is strong here I don't see any reason to play it as you have stated.

Yeah but this is a case for pot building. You have twelve outs to the nuts. The extra value of the A outs is probably not enough to merit forgoing a ton of flop bets when you have tons of equity. Note that your As are good a lot of the time anyway, and when they are not, its usually because they are reverse-dominated by hands that are going to be unlikely to fold anyway (AQ and to a lesser degree AT).
