No reads.. then fold. You don't beat anything but a bluff imo. You have pretty much nothing invested.. Just wait for a better spot.

I like this. Your hand is fairly transparent so it could be a good bluff spot if you know he knows and he knows you know, but I don't expect unknowns to try to fold out an ace here.

In retrospect, I think I do, too.

You should raise river. You are missing insane value here.

He has a weakish ace but still figures hes value betting when you play so passively after raising pre?

I agree with TWP.

Your hand looks like a missed draw and is very likely to be called by worse anticipating a bluffraise. Additionally, it protects your bluffs in future spots.

If you're folding with AQ here, which is one of the strongest hands you can have here, what are you calling/raising with? Are your raising ranges only full houses and air?
