First hand of a final, fold AJ on the button....?
I play poker in a league and we have a final each month, this was the very first hand...
3,000 chips first blind level a nice easy 25 / 50 it's folded round to me on the button with AJ. I raise to 300 and get re-raised by the BB to 800. I call, flop comes out 8s Js 8c. I without hesitation push all-in. To me this was the best flop i could hope for. He would never have re-raised me with an 8. So unless I'm sat against QQ KK or AA I must surely have the best of it. He calls me and turns over As Ks - flush draw. Which he hits on the river. Now I know my poker and so does he (we've played before) But should he really have called me with around a 30% draw without the odds to? Or other opinions are maybe I should have thrown away my AJ to threat of domination which is a possibility but I was in position...
