I admit just callin the min raise was a little weak but felt as I had the button I could see what happens post flop and didn't want to go crazy early in a deepstack. TPTK someone donk bets I figure usual junk so raise, then he reraises, is this always a fold or call and reassess ?

    before you press the raise button you really need to start thinking 'what do i do if he raises?   what do i do if he calls and the turn is the (insert possible scare cards here).

    it will stop you getting into really bad spots like this.

    if you think he has total junk then why would we raise with something that is very hard for him to outdraw.

    So if I call then he puts in say a 2/3 - 3/4 pot bet on turn do I call again or just fold. Also what do you think of the flat with AJ pre, too weak ?

     I like the call on the button with aj, keeps weaker hands in.

     Very tricky spot, i'd prob fold i think, maybe would of just flat called is flop bet in position if you think he has junk.
