Default Folding the nuts ..... would you?

I think this particular hand is much more relevant then the previous post of the same title

I have AQc and raise from middle position to 6BB SB, BB call as does UTG who had limped.

Flop J95 clubs. It's checked to me I bet 15BB, SB folds, BB moves All in he has over 200BB, UTG folds I have about 120BB left. I call with my heart in my mouth praying for the board not to pair.

Only a fool is folding here. What's your point? This isn't close.

You win 65% of the time if he has a set. You have way more equity than this before you see his cards because he could easily have a smaller flush and be drawing dead.

I would be absolutely thrilled to make this call even if he showed me the set. (obviously I would be more thrilled by any other hand though, particularly a flush)

It is actually pretty easy to come up with a situation that is a lot more interesting than this. Think made straights and freerolling flushes.

If folding here even begins to cross your mind you need to be playing lower stakes.
