personally I fold pre-flop.

I fold the turn as played but I am curious to see what others do here.

From the fish standpoint, I would play the hand pre-flop from the BB since the table is 6-handed and his raising range should be widened a bit at the CO. You're priced right to play after the flop, but villian prices you out at the turn. I would put him on a PP of 99+, with Aces or Kings less likely since his raise was weak after the flop. I would agree with PoWdA and fold at the turn. Nice that you flushed him though...

cheers for comments. as mentioned a catalogue of errors in this hand.
pre flop 2 into an 8 pot I'm calling this all the time I think. I would always fold A5o and never get excited on a Axx flop.

Thoughts on CR the flop now that it's HU. The CO is fairly loose agg, and has 100% FCB, even with mult opponents.

As played, totally agree with turn fold, no chasing odds and hand now transparent so not going to get any further value if I do hit.

river - again just bad. I knew my hand was face up after weak flop.turn play.

I def call pre-flop, unless you can't get away from an Axx flop.

I c-r the flop, willing to get it all in there.

As played, fold the turn. No implied odds, and certainly not getting the pot odds to call.

I think I'm with Never Race on this hand. You can make an argument for folding pre-flop, but I would probably play this hand also as long as you can get away from the hand if you flop top pair.

I like to either bet the size of the pot on the flop, or make a substantial check raise(leaning more towards the check raise. Can't see a ver good reason for folding on the flop.

The river is a really bad card to make the flush with, because of the one card straight potential. You definitely have to bet a smaller amount, even something as small as $10, afterall 10 is beter than 0
