A3s - 6 handed

Why do you think we are behind UTG? How often does he have a better Ace?

Why are we ignoring the other 4 players? And since "a better Ace" is almost *any* Ace and people love to play any Ace for a single bet pre-flop, we're behind a lot of the time.

If we'd had Q3s and the flop had a Q instead of the Ace, I'd be raising the flop for sure. With a (very) weak Ace against 5 players, 3 still to act, I'd certainly consider a fold, even though it is "top freakin' pair"...

Considering a fold is fine. But in the end analysis, there aren't enough ways to lose on this board, and top pair is probably best.

If the flop were AJT with a flush draw, folding is a much better option.

In the future if you feel the need to bump a 2 week old thread to add this response don't.

y'know, it's strange, crmenace: i am simultaneously experiencing an urge to strangle you and a competing urge to give you a high 5.
