Hi Gun,

I'd definitely limp behind in this spot. AJs plays well multiway, and you can avoid isolating against better hands.

As played flop and turn are fine (you can also call flop but I'd personally raise), on the river though it's close. Calling and folding are both an option.. personally leaning towards fold vs unknown.

Yeah it's tough because the most obvious draw missed. But when was the last time you actually picked off missed draws on the river
