i'm ok with the way you played it pf, if you hit a good flop you can win a big pot against A-A-x-xi think you should raise the flop, although calling isn't bad...you've hit a good flop here with a pair and a 12-out wrap that is probably live considering the cards needed to fill it, and by raising you get better draws and the button's likely A-A-x-x to fold their hands here...worst case scenario is you're against a set and are a 2-to-1 underdog, but given that board it's unlikely that you're against a set...i probably pot it right here and hope to take it down, and if someone plays then we just gamble

I was thinking just that very thing. I would rather get the money in on the flop when we have 2 draws at our straight instead of after seeing the brick turn, but when we do see that brick and get checked to, I think we pot it there too.

I am counting only 9 outs. And 2 6s for trips against a possible overpair which makes 11 outs for us.I thought about repotting flop to take advantage of fold equity but 3 things changed my mind ;1)UTG has only 22$ left. He will need to call 22$ for a 54$ pot if i repot. 2) There isn't a single draw on that flop. Which hand does he strongly lead into a preflop raiser and 2 other callers on that flop? I thought it must be a set or somehow Top Two.3)There are 2 players behind me.I read an article about how we should just check/call with good draws draws unless we believe we have really good fold equity. Looking at UTG's stack , i didn't think i was getting a fold from any hand that pots that flop. I agree i can get a fold from AAxx but why do i want a fold from AAxx? I am not winning this hand unless i hit and if i hit i will have the nuts , in that case don't i want AAxx in the pot?

The more I'm looking at this hand, I'm talking myself in to folding on the flop. I hate holding my own outs in plo. I'd be all over it if it were some kind of a wrap draw, but this feels like drawing to a gutshot. Fold>Raise>Call imo.

Isn't it the exact reason it is so good? I have 9 outs all to gutshots. Doesn't it boost my implied odds? I don't think a set can fold when i hit because it is a gutshot.

Are we up against a set here ever? Meh. Implied odds would matter more if the stacks were deeper I think. As you say, he's only got $22 left. You're not getting him out of this pot with a crowbar and you're taking the worst of it trying to catch up, the whole way.

I'd raise preflop.I like the flop call. You have enough implied odds IMO. It's probably close though. I don't actually mind repotting either. You have a lot of fold equity over AAxx.Check the turn. Take a free card.

I'd need to work it out, but I don't think it makes too much difference either way. Factoring in potential free cards on occasion, and that we have a 3-flush, it's very close.
