Fold Full house?
This hand here, i wasn't 2 worried about the preflop raise, it was nothing at all.
When the flop comes i still think AJ is good a lot of the time here.
When i hit my full house im a bit concerned he is firing out, but call the pot sized bet. On the river it was looking more and more like an overpair, but felt I had to call, ok he could have hit a random Q x hand, but thought it was either on overpair, pair, or air, so thought i was good enough of the time to call here. Any thoughts on this hand how it played out/?

Ignoring this particular hand for the time being, what is your 3-betting range against this opponent, blind versus blind?
In Response to Re: Fold Full house?:
What do i need to 3 bet him here?My thoughts on this hand were, opponents been pretty quiet we had been playing for about 2 plus hours (quite a settled table after a couple of maniacs donated their money). In hindsight i would have played this hand totally differently. I hadn't really seen this opponent involved in many hands at all, apart from one where he won a nice pot with a full house over a trips.
When he raises to 12p, I thought he prob has a decent enough hand, so i'm happy to call the raise, i don't really want to be 3betting a player that has been playing pretty tight. Also the 3 x raise didn't strike me as being a monster, it's the only time at this level i've seen such a min raise with such a big hand.
When the flop comes down, and he bets, i'm thinking strong possibility it's a pocket pair, or Ace X hand. Maybe my mistake was peeling to see another card.
However, when i hit my jack, i'm pretty sure I have the best hand (given it was such a small raise pre).
I'm happy to check call it down, Queen on the river did not change much, unless it was AQ.
Maybe this hand just plays itself? Or maybe i could of got away on the flop.
It's not that I think you should 3-bet here, I'm just wondering if you thought about it when the action came to you. Did you think about the range of hands that he could call your 3-bet with or did you just think "AJ is a decent hand and I have position. I'll see a flop." If it's the latter, then that's bad. If it's the former, then you should be able to answer all your questions for yourself.
If you thought his opening range was fairly tight, so you chose not to 3-bet, then you should have a fairly good idea that he won't barrell three streets on a three-of-a-kind board without a good hand.
If you think he doesn't call with worse than AJ and only 4-bets better or folds worse, then you should again think that he doesn't barrell three streets on this board with a weak hand.
If you think he's loose, can make moves and can play weaker hands than AJ pre-flop, then you should probably 3-bet AJ because you can get lots of value from worse hands.
Whatever type of opponent you're playing, you should realise that your Jack is only a bluff catcher on the river. You have to then ask whether your opponent can ever be bluffing. If he's a thinking player he'll know that players don't fold full houses very often and he won't be betting three streets for value with TT or worse on this board.
