Re: AQ heads up
I think I just call the flop bet. That's a flop that's very likely to have hit him somehow. Also, he's aggressive. Since you didn't provide a read that he'll be betting with hands you beat here, or he'll freeze up to your raise and give you a free card, I don't really like it. And then I fold the turn. You're probably facing Jx, but it might be QJ or AJ. On the off chance he has a T, you're in bad shape. I give you 6.5 outs on the turn. Since you'll have a hard time raising an A or a Q (and if you do, you'll sometimes have to fold to a 3bet), I don't think you have the implied odds to call that turn bet, even as you played it. OTOH, if this guy is bonkers enough to bet the whole way w/ squat, I might be inclined to call, call, call and show this down (raise your rivered straight, naturally).
