    Default $0.02/$0.05 AK on AQJ flop

    So whilst the PS server restart stopped new SnGs spawning, I played a little microstakes NL. Opp was very LAgg, stats probably 75/30 and aggressive after the flop too. Thoughts?

    PS. I usually exclusively play SnGs, I suck at cash.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Button ($22.27)
    SB ($11.30)
    BB ($12.51)
    Hero ($8.99)
    UTG+1 ($8.13)
    MP1 ($22.32)
    MP2 ($4)
    CO ($11.85)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with K, A. MP2 posts a blind of $0.05.
    Hero raises to $0.2, 1 fold, MP1 calls $0.20, 5 folds.

    Flop: ($0.52) Q, J, A (2 players)
    Hero bets $0.5, MP1 raises to $2.1, Hero raises to $8.79

    honestly these stakes are so low this kid could have anything...but if he is decent at all you are probably ravaged

    yeh ...it just seems like he has a weird k10 or maybe a-j...i just think you can find a better spot against him and get him to pay you off when ur positive u have him

    If you're just starting at cash, play at least 25nl. Maybe 10nl..

    This is a bad spot being oop... what raises here that you're ahead of? AJ and AQ pwn you now.. I guess at these stakes it could be AX.. but not too often.

    PS $0.02/$0.05 is 10NL.

    Thanks for the comments, the guy did in fact have QJ but an A came on the turn and I doubled up. Weeeeee! Seriously though, it just shows how much I suck at full ring. Was the right play to fold to the flop raise?

    yes fold the flop...i think full ring is kinda like the first blind level in a tourney - not too hectic you know? in ring you have all the time in the world to double up so usually you want to make sure you have the nuts or extremely close to it when you get your stack in.
