Big raise from the button, probably has AA with the Ah. I've gotta believe the other players just have big draws or hands like sets or 2 pair. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if MP1 has AJ, button has AK with the Ah. I'm not sure about the BB, he might have a good J or two pair with a good flush draw. Either way, I think your hand is good for the moment. btw, I think you shouldve led at the flop to scare a couple hands out, and figure out who has a flush draw.
The path
of the righteous man is beset on
all sides by the inequities of the
selfish and the tyranny of evil
men. Blessed is he who, in the
name of charity and good will,
shepherds the weak through the
valley of darkness, for he is truly
his brother's keeper and the finder
of lost children.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those
who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.
And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

Yeah, you shouldn't be playing a 89 suited to a raise of 6 BB even with two other callers.Odds are too good of a better flush, not to mention there's a good possibility of AA with an A of hearts out there, they have top set and a draw to the nut flush, shutting you outFold PF, there are better spots

I don't buy that the button has A-A with the Ace of hearts for one second. He's a horrible player if he does. It gets checked to him on the flop, he has an overpair and the nut flush draw...and he checks? Alright, let me rephrase: This player would have had to have been absolutely horrible to check on the flop with aces and the ace of hearts in his hand.I also agree with a pre-flop fold for the cutoff, he doesn't even have position on the raiser in this hand. If he was on the button, I might think differently.

Fold pre-flop to the big raise.After the flop, CO should bet out to protect the baby flush and to find out where he stands. Don't like the check.After the turn, CO only raises 30 into a pot of 142; bet out 2/3 the pot to try to take it down.Now, you're getting almost 3-1 if you call although there are two players acting after you.I would re-raise to force out the last two players; they would have re-raised earlier if they had a made hand. Then hope your hand beats MP1's hand.

Possibly, but the OP said the table was tight-aggressive. I'm hoping that that means that the button would bet with such a powerful hand on the flop.

Yeah, you'd think so but some tight players would be worried about a made flush

don't mind the preflop call. you have got to put some chips in at the flop.at any rate, you have to call here. you haven't said you have any kind of read on the players in the hand (other than they're generally tight-agg) and you didn't give any info on chip stacks... so there's a lot of missing info, but from what you've got, you should call.hard to say what people have here but it could be one person has 2 pair and one has a set and one has the ace of hearts. that'd be my best guess. it's also possible that someone has the nuts... still gotta callalso, i don't know who has what chips but there is no advantage to re-raising all-in that i can see
