out of position I prefer a c/r or even just c/c.
Its not a hugh draw - you have 9 outs to the nuts and 3 outs to a possible 2nd best hand.
Do you really want to call all your money here if he pushes now?
If you c/r and he push you can reevaluate.

Note: I have almost 0 experience with Full Ring games.


First off, reload PF. I would say raise or fold PF. AJo is not a strong hand in EP in ring games so I would probably lean towards folding. Now that you got to the flop, I like leading out here. I would just call his reraise and hope to hit my flush on the turn. If you decide to raise here, you have to raise more. That near min-raise does absolutely nothing except bloat the pot with a draw. Your raise has near 0 fold equity. If you are going to raise, raise to $10 or so and call a push. However, I would recommend just calling.


Darling- he has 9 flush outs and 6 non-flush straight cards. (3 non club 9's and 3 non club K's).
