why are you squeezing pf? - give us the reads that cause you to do this

that flop is draw heavy, your bet is way too weak for the texture of that flop and considering there are still two people in the hand

vs. unknowns, I toss this pf

PF is a bit questionable, but nothing i wouldn't do myself. Good flop for you. Why didn't you bet the turn?
After raising PF i think im betting the flop and turn here.
They could be calling with any spade/o/card draw here. Bet the turn. No?

Why not call pf? 3.5:1 is good enough. Without reads I'm not too keen on on your re-raise. Monster pots OOP with marginal hands make for difficult play.

As played though I'd push the turn on account of the drawy board and our vulnerable and possibly best hand.

meh, AJ is a pretty poor hand to squeeze pf with i think. i would play it like you did postflop though.

The squeeze is sketchy out of position, but you can do it every once in a while with the right table image. However, if you do this, fire out a bigger bet on the flop to really represent strength.

Other than that, I play how you did.
