Easy fold for me! I had AQ (all red) just last night and the flop was AQ7 all spades. Easily folded that hand.
Never bet on a white man in the heavyweight division!

you will get better responses to this if you post actual scenarios as there are many factors (table position, read on villian, stack sizes, etc.) that go into deciding how to play these hands. In general though you should play these hands very cautiously (read fold) as you could be up against a made flush or a hand that has draws to complete the flush.
Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

There's lots of ways you can play this hand. How you play it depends on stack sizes, reads, and your image.

I'd say that usually your choice will be between folding or pushing, though.

post the hand

in general, if you are oop then c/c if you have outs to a backdoor flush eg AspadesQhearts when a spade flush finds turn, but bet when you dont and fold to a raise most often if oop.
thats how i prefer to try and play it anyway.
