Default Re: $5+0.50 Early AT, Too Aggressive?

There pretty much isn't a single card that you want to hit when you raise ATo and get called, and it is expensive to find out where you stand, so I definitely fold. This is a tough hand to play without reads, and, this--combined with the diminishing value of chips earned-- is why this hand is gonna play much different than in a cash game. If you are a gifted hand reader that isn't playing a million tables, I guess its fine to raise, though limping will probably let you extract money from Ax in the blinds when you hit an A on the flop. Facts are though, that you're in the first level of a 5.50 where you don't really have any reads on anybody, as there are a million 5.50 players and like zero 5.50 regs, so just fold. BTW, with the limper if I raise any hand I'm making it 100 here to reduce your implied odds to a set, since they call too much anyway.
