Do you raise for value here, or are there just too many boat possibilities out there?

Default Re: AT hits straights on boat-y board

At the table, I probably just call, but let's see . . .

KQ is 9 combos.
AJ is 6 combos.
JT is 6 combos.

QJ is 6 combos.
KJ is 6 combos.
JJ is 1 combo.

And there is some chance of T9.

I think KQ pays you off, and KT (which I didn't mention but probably should have) might as well, although not nearly as reliably. Villain's bet size sort of looks like he's either trying to buy the pot or make up for lost time on his slowplay, but you do at least beat some of his flopped monsters.

Anyway, I'm thinking a raise is most likely best. And in this instance, that would be a push or a near-push, so obviously you're calling an all-in, but that 3-bet all-in possibility from Villain is not something that should terrify you.
