AJ facing pre-flop raise
READS: UTG+1 was kinda loose and could call down with inferior hands. MP2 was kinda tight pre-flop, but kinda weak post-flop and would tend to fold hands on the flop if he caught no part of it.
Reads notwithstanding, I still feel like I'm wasting money on plays like this, not to mention opening myself up to bluffs on the end (like here?). Fold pre-flop since it's not suited and there's 4 yet to act?

Re: AJ facing pre-flop raise
I don't like the turn bet, at some point you need to slow down, and the turn looks like a place for that. Not much you can really do here besides check the turn, fold river.

Re: AJ facing pre-flop raise
I think AJo is a fold pf against a raise, if u really think MP2 is tight, you could be easily dominated and if u catch your ace your in a rough position, rest is fine though, i dont believe we're good w/ A high at the end either, fold seems fine

Re: AJ facing pre-flop raise
I'd fold preflop (since MP1 is tight) and check behind on the turn.

Re: AJ facing pre-flop raise
I'd fold this preflop if your read on MP2 is correct. If UTG+1 wasn't in already, I think a 3-bet is fine. I'd probably 3-bet a wide range of hands against MP2 in that spot, since MP2 is weak.
As it is, I don't really see a problem with your postflop play. I like betting the turn more often than checking behind, although I do both depending on the opponent. |

Haven't read the other replies..
I check behind here on the turn. The free card probably helps you more than it helps them. |

Re: AJ facing pre-flop raise
Throw it away preflop unless he's known to be a loose raiser, or he's raising first in and you think he's capable of lowering his raising standards.

Re: AJ facing pre-flop raise
What was your thinking on the PFR here?
There aren't that many hands that you would expect a "normal" player to be raising with that you are going to be excited to see. But, there are a lot that you are going to most definitely be unhappy to see. As others have said, this is normally a muck unless you have a specific read on MP2. |

Re: AJ facing pre-flop raise
Fold this hand preflop, MP2 has you dominated. I'm not 3 betting AJo unless there's a LAG behind the raise.
