I don't see too many people c/r their FD OOP so I would lead towards set here and you without a redraw. Other options are 9xcc

I might shove here and take notes on the hand

It's looking like he wants to play for stacks here. This puts us smack dab in the center of the dilemma overpairs w/mid sized stacks always face when they're played back at. Calling and folding to future action means we put in 1/3 of our stack just to give up, pushing ourselves really should only get called by hands that beat us, and folding to his check raise means we fold the best hand a good percentage of the time. Vs. an unknown, I think I give it up and watch him closely in the future to see how often he plays back at the preflop aggressor.

I feel like I c/r the nut flush draw a lot against TAGs, but since you don't know much about this guy, seems like a set. If you're planning on playing for a while, I agree with the latter.

With no reads on opponent I fold this. Looks like a set to me.

If you fear set every time an opponent c/r when you have AA, you'll get run over.
This could be an over pair, a flush draw with 2 overs, middle pair, air.
I call and looking to get it in on a safe turn.

ALL IN. I've seen KK and QQ do that exact same thing. Once in a while, AK and TT will pull something like that. Then again I play the 10 nl =)

safe turn IMO being non-spade, T or 5 turn, then get it in.

yah sorry I didn't post enough -

this could very easily be 2 overs +FD for him and he might be a good player that knows he is now the fav. He conversly might also be a donkey whom thinks that A9 is the nuts right now. I think his range is laege enough that you still might have as much as 50% equity in this pot.

A shove here is a bit reckless so I also don't mind a turn shove on a non 5, T or [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] turn.

People wake up with all kinds of crap in these situations, but I'm not sure 2 pairs fits. A combo draw might fit and a set definitely does. Given the combo draw possible I think your equity is fairly decent on a shove.
