  2. really tought spot and i found myself in a similar situation earlier today. i would put him on AJ w/ ace of hearts i doubt he would raise so much a made flush. i would probably lay it down unless you were feeling lucky. would definately like to hear some other opinions though

  4. I believe this is a clear spot for a fold. Even if he has something like AcJd he still has plenty outs to beat you. It's a very tough spot but you still have plenty of chips to do damage with. Why commit a huge chunk on a hand you are possible already dead on or close to?
