Interesting Situation ...to me at least

[Scuba Chuck]

Feel free to blast me, but this is completely from memory.

$55 6 handed game. Blinds were 100/200. Guy on my left had raised to 600 on the three previous hands, and showed AQ, AK, AQ in that order. On the next hand, I was the BB (so culprit in this story is UTG). And he raises to 600, and I have AJ.

Now, in my experience, usually when I go on a stealing binge, I'm usually getting a rush of cards. Like I'll steal one hand with 96s. Then AQ, then I'll wake up with KK and some guy with 99 decides someone's got to make a stand.

Anyhow, I had AJo. I was 4th in chips, and had 6BBs behind after posting. 3rd in chips was less than 1 BB ahead of me, and 5th and 6th stack were 2.5 BBs or less.

And I folded....
