I think you played it fine. I dont mind the check behind on the turn, nor the check on the river - since you'd probably only get called by hands that beat yours (2 pair, weak flush, broadway straight). Not to mention, by checking, you get to see what he check/called you down with.

Are you shortstacking on purpose?

Re: Comments on this hand
 

Fold pf.

Re: Comments on this hand
 

a very good LAG may raise this hand on the button, but someone playing shortstacked, or even a solid TAG shouldnt be playing this hand from any position, ever imo. so fold preflop.

as played though it looks good.

Re: Comments on this hand
 

yeah, why the shortstack?

Huh?

I raise this hand pretty much 100 % of the time here.

Re: Comments on this hand
 

maybe im just a nit but A5 is just a bit to weak for me.

Re: Comments on this hand
 

I only raise it on the button.

I think you might not steal enough if you fold it.

DontTiltMe looking at my PT stats you are probably right, i do not steal enough.
