Default Re: Well.... this ones a tuffy!

This is a fold on every street, although I personally don't mind limping UTG with AJo on stars on a very passive table. If you had a read on the table that this raise was unlikely, you can call and have it be +EV or at least not very -EV. However, you have no read and, IMHO, absolutely cannot risk playing AJo in a raised pot when blinds are so low. It's too easy to not know which outs you're looking for, and too many flops leave you confused.

On the flop, you're in a multiway raised pot with TP2K and a monotone board. You should ignore your flush draw here because the pot is multiway so the 2nd nut flush draw isn't very likely to be enough, if it is enough you'll make very little off of it when it hits, and if it isn't enough you'll probably find yourself paying off another bet.

The turn would be a hard decision if both the cutoff and the BB weren't representing hands that you beat. CO looks like top two or a set and BB looks like set or flush. Of course, at these stakes, they could be playing dumbly, but the odds that both of them are is quite low.

You played this like a calling station. It seems obvious from your lack of aggression that you felt you needed to hit the flush before you felt confident with your hand (DRAWING to the NON nut flush). You deserve to lose all your chips with this hand.

As for AJ, look at this ..... Loc: out of position.
