Re: AQ on dangerous board
This might be incorrect, but just to be adversarial in the interests of generating discussion...
I might call the flop raise here, primarily for two reasons
a) It's a safe call getting 135 to 31. We have at least 4 clean nut outs, and maybe some partial trips/two pair outs.
b) Position
If he bets big on the bricked turn into us, it's an obvious fold. But he might check the turn to us, which I'd intend to check through, see what the river brings, and re-evaluate.
The fact that SB is OOP means he HAS to be scared of what we're calling with unless he has QT. Scary boards work both ways. If we're feeling really sexy, I think it's possible that the call can set up a lot of sick bluffs that could move him off AJ/KJ type hands on later streets.
