I think I can check/raise and then call shove OTF?

Calling is also +EV I think, but playing it aggressively probably even more profitable, correct?

Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: $2.00

Hero raises to $0.06, fold, CO raises to $0.21, fold, fold, fold, Hero calls $0.15

Hi monteCarlol,
Assuming CO isn't a spew-monkey, 3Bet vs UTG is a strong hand.
OK to see a flop though w/ AJs (at least I think so -- others may have different opinions)
Check/Raise on the flop might be OK, and it might get you a fold right there, but not likely in a 3Bet pot.
But the implied odds are there so that if you hit your nut flush, you may get a decent payoff.

On the turn, I think the fold is OK

I'm curious to read what the real experts think though...

I think you are right. It highly depends on the fold equity. If it is low it is probably better to just call.

Imho a call turn is ok here, if oppo is passive fold pre vs that size.

Have you a read to of his sizing?
