Default .50NL - AQ suited with top pair and SB raise on flop - turn play?


Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.25/$0.50
7 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $46
Hero: $38.35
MP1: $50.60
CO: $15
Button: $42.65
SB: $53.50
BB: $50.10

Pre-flop: (7 players) Hero is UTG+1 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $2.25</font>, 2 folds, SB calls.

Flop: 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($5, 3 players)
SB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $3.5</font>, <font color="#cc0000">SB raises to $9</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($23, 3 players)
<font color="#cc0000">SB bets $12</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero ??</font>

No reads on the player as this was the 10th hand of so. No pokertracker stats on SB either. I was going to ask whether I should have folded on the turn but I guess the better question is whether I should have folded after the raise on the flop. Could have had a set and was in deep crap. I put him on an ace as well. Didn't think I could just call him down as I would have been all-in eventually.

Thoughts

I'd flat call the turn. I put him on two pair, but we have lots of kicker/counterfeit/gutshot outs.

I don't like calling the turn. You only have $17 behind on the turn, so either push or fold (it's a $42 pot if you call), so don't call unless you're hoping for a bluff catcher on the river (and even then, still push the turn).
He looks like he's got A-10 or A-7, though, so folding may very well be in order. You can't call hoping to catch on him if you think you're behind because of the aforementioned lack of implied odds with the small amount behind.
Personally, I'd fold, as A-7, A-10, A-J, and A-K or all better possibilities than a weak ace or a bluff.

I agree with TwoToGo, you either push turn or fold it. From my experience flop c/r followed by leading out on the turn on a board like this means you are almost always beat with your hand. I'd fold.

The c/r flop lead turn is a strong line. There's nothing that we beat if we shove turn except the slim possibility of just a diamond draw that has to call b/c of odds. Def fold turn.

FWIW bet a little more on the flop

This is very read dependant imo, without a read this is a fold on the flop, and the flop bet might been a bit weak, witch induced a bluff/semibluff.
