    I snap fold, you're not drawing to anything and a re ship of this nature generally means set (65%) or nut draws (35%).

    Didn't even check the bet sizing and stack sizes.

    I'm still prob only 50/50 to call/fold.

    but people with more skillz and intelligence should probably advise.

    You have a nice hand pre even with the lack of suits, and it's HU. However you're OOP. but raising is definitely fine.

    If you want to bet/fold the flop, consider betting less than pot, say 320. but you shouldn't make a habbit of betting less than pot, then folding. keep your bet-sizing the same.

    Given stack sizes, this hand pretty much plays it self. Bet/get-it-in on the flop.

    I would raise this pre if suited to the ace, but with a rainbow hand I would just check pre and keep the pot small OOP.
    As played I would probably bet 320ish/fold, his range here largely consists of combo-draws which are favourites vs. your hand and made hands that have you in very bad shape.

    Thanks for the input guys.

    Yeah wasnt really sure what was going on when he shoved, I thought about it for a bit and prob would have folded if i had a little more experiance under me & in hidnsight should have.

    Ended up calling to see this, Felt pretty ameature afterwards.

    Hero calls 720, and is all in
    Dave310420 shows [7d 9s Kd Qd]
    Hero shows [Ac Jd Kh Js]
    Uncalled bet of 120 returned to Dave310420
    *** TURN *** [3s 9d Ks] [3h]
    *** RIVER *** [3s 9d Ks 3h] [8s]
    Dave310420 shows two pair, Kings and Nines
    Hero shows two pair, Kings and Threes
    Dave310420 wins the pot (2,880) with two pair, Kings and Nines
