Default Re: is this the easiest situation to fold AA?

What are we even drawing too? Even if we spike an Ace, one of our Ace outs isn't a clean out to being with. So we are drawing to one Ace? Which will give us a hand that still probably isn't good in this spot?

For example, let's say button has J9, let's also assume SB has A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and obviously won't fold. This is a scenario far worse than average, we're up against a hand that beats our and a strong draw. Still we have outs to call. We have one A out, 3 8s and 2 7s for a total of 6 outs. Getting 9:1 from the pot this is a VERY easy call. So basically we need to know we're up against a set, flush or straight to fold this turn. How can we possibly know that after playing our hand this weak? And as I've explained in a previous post it's not very likely one of them has a T.

We should fold if the turn brings a [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], but we can absolutely not check/fold a 7 on the turn.
