Low SPR stack off spot with AA (5 5 10 20)
I'm playing live 5 5 10 20. There's 2 limpers, Recreational player raises to 110 in MP
1500 Effective Stacks. I have (Ad Ac Tc 9d) in the CO, and I make it pot.
Pot - 800 - Flop (Kh Qh 4c) and its heads up.
There's 800 in the pot, and I have about 1100 behind.
He pretty quickly bets out the pot.

u go broke here every time with overpair + gutter + bd fd
I made a small mistake on my post, because I did not have the back door flush draw.
There was not a club on the flop. Flop was Kh Qh with a low card that didn't give me a Back door Flush Draw, just a bare gut shot with AcA Tc9...
With an SPR of about 1.375 to 1, how much equity would I need to call?
Thanks,
You go broke even without the BDFD.
Get it in without thinking about it and hope to hold without thinking about it and reload without thinking about it and just hold next time. Without thinking about it.
If villain does not have AA, what sorts of (solid) raising hands does this flop miss? Few.
If he figures you for AA AND has kahones, the WORST hand he could have is a 9-high run down with small hearts; making you a little better than 2:1 favorite.
If he's got AhJhQ9 you are barely a favorite.
Otherwise you are toast.
The good news is that he may very well fold a lot of hands that that flop hits such as AKQx, QQxx.
But WAIT!
If villain has got any sort of sensible play, he'll presume you'll bet your likely AA and therefore check two-pair or better.
Auto-call against a solid player who will presume you have AA and will bet it.
