Default Re: Live 2/5-- AJo

pretty much wantto raise this flop, ifBB 3bets it's a routine fold. You really want to take the lead.

I would alway raise this up preflop,though, especially to isolate a bad player. AJ high is great in position vs a shortstacked fish. Now you have a multiway pot when BB isshowing a little interest and the pot is small, but you need to fight for it.

Your raise (to 45) was too small. The time to get money in is now - your raise wasnt bad but it wasn't enough.

Given they both called it's time to put them on hands. UNfortunately, BB leadin otu small ccould easily be a weak or marginaldraw, and since your raise on the flop was small, he's correct in peeling light there. Fish, once other guy calls, is looking at a big pot, but you pretty much want him in. (But you should want him in for a higher price, if you get my drift)

You're probably ahead here, it's possible BB is going to c/r all in with two pair, but your hand is vulnerable and now you get to overplay tptk in a limped pot. So bet 140, get all in with fish, hope that BB calls and checks river with like KJ or the like.

BTW, your stack size is important, I assumed you covered all.

edit: By the way, that turn card is one of the best that could fall. It didnt help anyone, at all, so if you were ahead on the flop (probably, but not definitive) you're still ahead now. People may say tocheck this turn, but thats a mistake w/ 2 opponents.
