Default Re: AJo 15/30 hand

I hate this play. I think the 3-bet is pretty bad, but if your read told you these guys would raise or call with worse hands than your holding fine. I think you can lay down preflop without losing any value here.

The flop is very bad. The action was capped preflop which had to tell you you were not best. There is no way you have odds to call the two bets on the flop. Getting about 8 to 1 with a gutshot and a backdoor flush draw is not even close. Factor in the times that you get there on the straight and lost to a boat or flush your odds have decreased further.

Regardless of how bad the players are, don't let them force you into making these kinds of mistakes. The idea of 3-betting this flop is torrential spewage of the highest order. Even the worst players don't usually cap preflop without something that is surely ahead of your holding here. The possibility of this flop getting reraised or capped is highly likely. fold preflop or fold the flop. Standard.
