Default AJ on the button preflop

Ultimate Bet 2/4 Hold'em (6 handed) converter

MP is not what I would call solid, but 30/15 preflop and isn't afraid to fold if he misses. CO is 40/20, and alot more likely to call down with as little as a gutshot. SB hasn't been there long but has mostly folded and BB is loose passive (50/5).

Preflop: Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP raises</font>, CO calls, Hero?

I 3bet here, but im a lag. Basically, you have position, you can take the initiative, and a guy with a 15%pfr will be opening a lot, even utg. 40/20 would have 3bet any hand that beats you.

I would normally 3bet this too, but I started wondering how much you really give up by folding here.

When would you ever just cold call with a big offsuit hand like this. My gut tells me soemthing like 0%.

I didnt say I would, I just said folding is not an option. I would rather coldcall than fold though.

I definitely would never call since I want control of the hand and the blinds to go away.
