Question of the Day

Background

The players at the table in the $1/$2 game at your local casino range from tight to pretty terrible. It’s folded to you in middle position, and you make it $10 to go with your A T. You are called by player 5, the cut-off, the button and the big blind. Everyone else folds. The flop comes A J 9. The big blind, whom you know to be one of the tighter players at the table, if not in the room, makes a $40 bet.

What should you do?
