He might have fullhouse but then he need to have the 55.
Or he might have AK AQ. Or maybe ATs [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Posoble beacuse it is an limped pot .
But you have to call.

So i dont find it.

I would.

I might be able to find the fold if it was a raised pot. It's lot more difficult in a limped pot since AK/AQ is less of a possibility. I would think CO would want to thin the field if he had one of those hands. The hand I actually would fear would be A5(likely suited) or 55, as both of those play excellant in late position in a limped pot with plenty of players.

I think I prefer a call on the turn. If you are ahead, he's probably drawing to very few outs. (he cant have trip aces and a flush draw, you have that ace) If you are behind, then you keep your investment lower. About the only bad cards on the river would be a 2 or a 3. Plus you keep UTG in... although frankly I can't figure out what he has there.

I'd call. If he's betting an ace it might be an ace with a low kicker. He did not raise pre flop so AK or AQ is less likely. If he has a full house - so be it. Its $24 more to you to call into a pot of about $80. That's nearly 4 to 1 pot odds.
The hands that beat you are: 55, 44, A5, A4 (AQ, AK)
The hands that you beat are: A10,9,8,7,6,3,2,
Just thinking that far is enough so I want to call. Its also possible he has a pair higher than 5's.

You have no choice but to call.

I would have bet out the flop or check-raise to better define my hand, but your play is OK.

On the turn, villain's most likely hand is AX or 55. You only lose to AK,AQ,55 and you beat AT-A2. You definitely have odds to call since you beat more than 50% of the hands.

[JimmyJazz1]

I like your line. Call the turn and hope he doesnt have AQ, which i dont think he does. I put him on a worse ace. Well played.

Why are you playing AJo in MP?

Why did you check the flop? Assuming I mistakenly limped in with AJo (which, in my opinion, is a fold 90% of the time, raise 10% of the time hand in this position), I'm betting this flop roughly 100% of the time.
