Pretty new to the table, villian is unknown.

There was a poster UTG+1 so I made my preflop raise a bit bigger. He cold calls the raise and then button makes it $8.
I had a feeling it could be an outright steal/squeeze.
I considered making it ~$20 to go or even push.

This might be a super standard fold w/o a read, but if you had a feeling that it might be a squeeze would AJs be good enough to play back with?

Give unknowns credit at first, squeezes are NOT commonplace at 50NL /images/graemlins/smile.gif


Just fold !

A feeling? mmmm I doubt it, even suited I would let it go especially as I am OOP and not closing the action, and its the button doing the 3betting here, save for your /images/graemlins/club.gif's 118-1 flop or a flop of KQT, niether an A or J Flopping is gonna make you totally comfortable

Folding without a read is super duper luper standard. If he does it a lot, then we can get some FPS.

I dump it.

1) I'm a nit
2) Villain is unknown
3) You have AJ

Fold and stack this donkey on another hand.
