Spewing with AJ.

Villain is 28/21 and seems solid. I don't see any other hand than a draw taking this line. With dead money, do I call?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ Hero (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

MP ($745.20)
CO ($200.20)
Button ($236.65)
SB ($203)
Hero ($199)
UTG ($163.15)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Jhttp://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...iles/heart.gif, Ahttp://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...es/diamond.gif. SB posts a blind of $1.
2 folds, CO raises to $8, 1 fold, SB (poster) calls $7, Hero raises to $23, CO folds, SB calls $17.

Flop: ($58) Jhttp://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...iles/spade.gif, Thttp://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...iles/spade.gif, 8http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...iles/spade.gif (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $41, SB calls $178 (All-In), Hero ????

Fold. I think TPTK no good. I think at best you are up against a strong draw.

i wonder if checking behind on the flop is a good idea here?

I'd rather take a stab with 1/2 bet. If he is scared of spades, you will take it down.

Easy fold on the flop.

This is not a very good flop for your hand. I might check behind on the flop and hope the board blanks, which would effectively improve your hand. You also diffuse a possible check-raise play by the small blind.

If you do bet, I don't think you should risk a pot-sized bet. I'd probably bet about half the pot and hope he has air.

This looks like a standard fold, if he checks the flop I bet the guy fires they are very aggressive.
