A 9 or ace is obv bad. But what is our plan if A or 9 hits ? We check fold, check call, bet fold ?
What about a Q or J ?
What about a 7 ?
If a club hits on river, and we check(which I like to induce) and he bombs it(Pots) are we calling ?
I know a lot of different spots, but this hand is so common, really like to hear your thoughts here.

If you're talking about the river, I'd probably c/f on an A/9 (unless he bet small). Maybe block a Q/J/7 with a 1/2 pot bet, but check/evaluate is also a reasonable option.
On a club I'm check-calling any bet size (except a tiny bet, against which I might checkraise small and fold to a 3bet).

what do you guys think of min4betting pre?
isnt he pretty likely to just call with his rundowns and reraise with his aces every single time, allowing us to play near perfect against him?
I like it, so long as:
1) His range is wide enough to include lots of rundowns. If it's not, we're just handing him more $ without a chance to see a flop. When he 3bets our UTG open from the SB, I expect he has a pretty strong range.
2) He won't ever 5bet a non-AA hand. If we min-4bet, a smart player might recognize that we probably don't have aces ourselves, and might 5bet wider with ace-high rundowns or such things.
