Default NL 100 - Top set, simple hand checkup

MP, 15/10/5 (512) has $51 when I made him/her all-in. No other reads, is this the optimum way to play this?

Hero ($98)
UTG+1 ($47.65)
MP1 ($40)
MP2 ($115.65)
CO ($41)
Button ($22.50)
SB ($22)
BB ($42.50)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $4</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP2 calls $4, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>.

Flop: ($9.50) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Cold calling from MP is not a standard play for a 15/10/5 with KQ or suited connectors. Generally I don't think you have much to worry about here and your line looks good as long as the betting amounts are pretty standard for what you normally make.

If he calls here you usually see AK or JJ, and even if you happen to be beat you have 10 outs to the river.

yeah. i wouldn't be too afraid of the flush either, especially since the A is a heart (making a AK suited hand impossible as flush). if he re-raises you all in though, something is going on, and KQ of hearts seems very possible. as jhill3535 says, you still have a lot of outs, so take it to showdown!

I would be very suprised to see KQ here if he is a real 15/10'er. This is about what I play to and I am usually not cold calling in MP with KQs. It has too much RIO to be profitable IMO.
