Ideas? I think folding here AJo will be definitly too weak. Somehow he should x/r mostly a pairs, and i don't know if he is capable of pure bluffing with backdoors and stuff.

Hi!

Well its hard to give an easy answer in such hands. You kindda have to make a decition on the turn.Either fold there or call and also call river assuming he is capable of bluff raising such flop.

Since he looks quite agro I agree that calling is fine especially with such strong Ax but I would fold turn with Weaker Ax where my outs were more tainted.Also agro player can c/r this flop with some Ax since he actually is slight favourite so that would be another reason to not fold yet.

Hard hand and you have to go with your gut but a rule of thumb is that you dont want to make a weak impression vs strong players in these early hands which is another reason for calling
