    Usually when I flop a gift like this I like to play it fast to get the hand over with, but should I have shut down with the A on the turn? What would you do? I could careless about the AA guy the big pot was with the flush draw.

    Lol at check/folding turn. You should never ever check fold this turn card in a 4.40. No 4.40 player is folding a bair Q here and they are definately not folding a bare Ace here. You would be losing soooooo much value by not getting it in on the turn here.
