Table is insane..
Please tear apart my play to this point.

I'm looking at a $18 pot with $6 to call.
Looking at the hand I figure I'm facing 2 pair+
And 1-2 players possibly drawing to the same flush..
Fold or call?

Preflop: raise or fold. Do not limp AJs utg+1. If you had raised/folded than you probably wouldn't be in trouble here.

Then I'd be folding to the insane table.
I've played TAG over an hour,
And it doesn't suprise me when I get 5 garbage hands calling my UTG 5xbb, etc.
Raising doesn't isolate here it seems to give incentive.

This is stupid advice. I usually raise this, but if the table is insane as described limp/calling is fine. I almost never fold this PF for a reasonable amount, unsuited is a different story.

I like how you played it. Sometimes I try and get it in on this flop multiway, but this isn't one of those times.

AJo I'd fold no hesitation heh.
Postflop I kept looking for a good spot to push but I couldn't do it.
So is this a call or a fold?

Preflop

If you're going to get a ton of callers, then limping is totally fine here. You've got a big family pot with minimal investment. WEEEEE!!


Flop

I can see calling the BB to see what happens, but after CO raises, I probably shove and expect at LEAST 2 callers (judging by the table, probably 3 or 4).


On the turn, you've lost a good amount of equity, and you're not sure that your A/J outs will give you the winning hand. I'd probably fold here.

[illini43]

Preflop is fine.

I would have raised the flop to $1.00 and pushed if it was raised behind me. You might have as many as 15 outs (probably more like 12).

[TheBad]

At this table, there are better spots. Fold.

[spence79]

I agree with Rapid, I flat-call the BB's first flop bet,but when it comes back to me after the co raise I'd put in a big reraise/ship.

[CaptVimes]

Final pot will be 19.53, I included button's remaining .78 since he will more than likely throw that in when it gets back to him. That gives you a little better than three to one odds. You have a NFD plus a gutshot straight draw. However, someone is likely to have a set here or already made a better straight, so your outs aren't clean. I think this probably is a fold. Be more aggro with your flush draw on the flop.
