    Default Straight on monotone flop

    Villian is 40/32. Figured I'd get all in on a safe turn.

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    SB ($3.89)
    BB ($53.90)
    UTG ($79)
    MP ($53.55)
    Hero ($49.28)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with A, Q. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
    UTG raises to $2.25, 1 fold, Hero calls $2.25, 2 folds.

    Flop: ($5.25) T, K, J (2 players)
    UTG checks, Hero bets $4, UTG raises to $9, Hero calls $5.

    Turn: ($23.25) 7 (2 players)
    UTG bets $15, Hero all in, UTG calls $23.03.

    River: ($61.28) 8 (2 players)

    Final Pot: $61.28

    I'd really like to hear some thoughts on this one. He's raising huge range PF, so he could easily have hearts. However, he'd probably play KJ, KT, JT, TT, JJ, KK, AK the same way. A lot of times he just has the A of hearts as well. Combined with the fact that flopping a flush just isn't that likely, I decided to take a line that would get the most out of the hands I'm beating. So do you like it?

    I like a reraise preflop, AQ with position is way ahead of 40/32 here.

    His flop min c/r seems like a fishy way of playing a big made hand or draw, but more likely a made hand (2p or set), so a 3-bet is better IMO.
