It tough but I would fold here w/o any reads. Even though SB is loose he is not c/r two people with a hand that is weaker than TPTK in this spot.

fold. Horrible spot for him to be tricky with a c/r so you have to give it some respect.

Yeah fold but I really hate doing it.

That is what I ended up doing. I hated folding because SB is so LAG and I have TPTK, but with my betting strong into two people and another player calling I can't see him doing this with worse than my hand.

So yeah I folded and unfortunately CO folded as well so I didn't get to see what he had. I hated folding though, it felt dirty [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I think flop check min-raises on boards like this are draws more often than monsters. A set or AQ would check raise bigger here.

I think shoving flop is not horrible. We are almost always ahead of button here since he just called the flop. So the question is if and how often villain takes the line w/ draws.

If button was not also in the hand, then I would probably call flop and get all in on a non-spade turn.

Also, if you think you are beat, then you must be putting small blind on exactly A4 or 44 (possibly AQ, but it depends on how often SB re-raises that preflop).
