Default Re: \"this is why you suck\" badbeatsRus2 and I_Lou_again 5 hands pt1

AKJ8 is not a mediocre hand that should be limped from the button. Raising it up preflop is absolutely fine in an 8 handed game. Making it 3x the blind was perfect. On the flop it's acceptable to bet here in a passive game or check in an aggressive one.
I would take the free card on the turn as I want a cheap showdown in this situation, plus it may induce people to bluff as I show weakness.
