What is the BI level? Personally I fold this preflop and open raise AQo+ and AJs+, ATo plays so badly post flop and stealing the blinds here is not worth the risk. As played I prefer bet/fold the turn, if he calls I go broke on the river if it isn't a :spade:. Once again, this spot is why folding preflop would be a better option.

I usualy fold it preflop

As played I bet flop a little bigger and I'm check/folding turn. The board is terrible for going broke with AT this early imo.

there is always a bigger fish

Hi all,

Fold preflop. As played I would check/call turn and check/fold river. He can be betting for value with worse Ax hands here on the turn.
