quick preflop: 3 handed
 

sb can be an aggrofish, but I don't mind playing flops with either of them. this is a HORSE game if that makes any difference.

I have trip aces with a suited deuce OTB. worth a steal?

Re: quick preflop: 3 handed
 

I would consider it a value bet, not a steal.

Re: quick preflop: 3 handed
 

certainly worth a raise

Re: quick preflop: 3 handed
 

raising here isn't even close.

Re: quick preflop: 3 handed
 

yeah ok I kind of figured - not like it happens much though.

what about trip deuces with a suited ace? trip fives?

Re: quick preflop: 3 handed
 

You likely have the best hand. Only one Ace left.
I would raise almost every time in this spot.

If I held A222s I would definitely play. Calling or raising is a question of how likely the blinds will fold to your raise. It would also depend on how much I had raised on other hands and what my image was, as well as how the blinds play.

A555 has little value other than if you think your steal raise will be sucessful.
