Default AJ with a scary bord and shortstack moving in

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) converter

saw flop|<font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>

BB ($39.05)
UTG ($214)
MP ($38.70)
CO ($105.45)
Hero ($142.70)
SB ($45)

Preflop: Hero is Button with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls $1, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises to $5</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls $5, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to $9</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG calls $8, MP calls $4, Hero calls $4.

I call preflop because it's SH and I have good position.

Flop: ($37) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets $9</font>, UTG folds, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises to $29.7</font>, Hero folds, SB folds.

Final Pot: $75.70

I really got a headache over this hand.. There were definitely AK possibilities. There were definitely flusdraw possibilities. I didn't have time to do the math in the heat of the moment, but I got the feeling that the total sum of draws + AK AQ + sets outnumbered my equity here. I wanted to call tho, especially because both of them where shortstacks and would be allin if I called. To my surprise SB folded..!

Actually MP showed his hand, I can post later

Pick a better spot - if he was semi-bluffing with black kings so be it - plus, your kicker is weak to call an allin here (even at 6max)
