I would guess you very rarely get value-owned. But just like they say that if you never fold the best hand to a bluff, you are calling too much, same goes to being value-owned. If you very rarely get value-owned, you probably aren't value betting thin enough.
IMO many villains would have called in this situation (esp a slightly smaller bet), not to mentioned all the other value hands others have listed in this thread.
I wouldn't agree with all of this but
I don't put myself in spots where I'm drawing to the low end of a straight or a baby flush with 6 others in the pot or Ace rag with 6 others to the flop.
I never said given the right line up I wouldn't raise AJ from small blind I just said would never call.
I'll 3-bet 87 from late position to narrow the field before calling and taking it 7 way to the flop , just my style
I have no issues being the aggressor, its the calling off lite I don't do, do I fold a winner here and there ; sure
as to this post given what OP stated my read was JJ QQ and value on the river may have been had where a turn bet will scare these hands off
I enjoy everyones posts and always look at other ways hands could be played.
thank you
