extremely easy laydown. You're ahead of AJ and that's it.

EDIT: Although this is player dependent. against the right player you can call this if you have a read he caps very light. I would need one extremely specific read though.

For some reason when this happens I either auto think AK or an overpair looking to enduce a bet on the turn. I would call for information reasons, but RARELY do I expect to have the best hand on the river.

This is a really easy laydown. I dont think the type of player that caps AJ slows down on the turn here and that is pretty much the only reasonable hand you beat here.

I almost always find a reason to see a showdown HU with the nut no pair. I should probably stop that.

you must hate money when you call knowing you are going to lose.
