My thoughts here I wanted to float the flop because I assume he cbets a lot of these flops but I feel like I put myself in trouble once that ace hits what do you think

PokerStars - 60/120 Ante 30 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

Hero (SB): 45.07 BB
BB: 30.33 BB

CO: 44.55 BB

6 players post ante of 0.25 BB, Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 3 BB) Hero has A♠ J♥

UTG raises to 2 BB, MP calls 2 BB, fold, fold, Hero calls 1.5 BB, fold

Hero checks, UTG bets 2.81 BB, fold, Hero calls 2.81 BB

It's a multi way situation. That makes it less likely for him to bluff and that makes a float with 1 over card and a backdoor flush draw a tricky move. Especially against a short stack with not to much room to move. Folding would be the best option. Even with the decent odds you. Whe you hit the ace it's really tough to fold a straight draw as back-up if he has a better hand.

Cheers,

I don't fancy the preflop flat from the SB even though it's a 2x open.
I don't mind the flop check/call vs that size.
Well, turn you hit the ace and still have a draw. It's a nasty spot for sure. You'll be seing AA,KK, QQ, AQ, AK often. JTs is now the nuts. I think I'd fold, he'd need to be bluffing with something like 54s, weaker draws (J9s).
Weak Ax, Qx shouldn't play this way.
You block the top of his range, but still I don't think it is that relevant when I can't find bluffs.
