Default A10s v.s. post flop action by the blinds

I normally don't raise from UTG with A10s, but employ this tactic every now and then against a loose table for the times I hit TP with flush draw, etc.. big pot. When I miss, easy fold.
Poker stars $1-$2
Hero has A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 10 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] UTG. Hero raises to $2, all fold to SB. SB calls, BB calls.
6 bets
FLOP
10 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
SB bets, BB calls, Hero raises, SB 3 bets, BB calls, Hero calls.
I think the BB has a draw or a big hand, and I think SB has JJ-1010, or called with something crazy like 46s.
Turn-(15 bets)

SB bets, BB calls, Hero folds...
Action from SB is telling me that I am beat, should I think differently.

folding is bad against most opponents. I see QT and KT here all the time.

I know that SSHE says raise with AKs-A10s, but I have been having trouble with AK-AJ calling in position.

Preflop: Limping at a loose online table (4ish to the flop) is fine. Raising is fine. Folding is bad.

Flop: good

Turn: Look at the size of the pot. No way I'm folding here.

I normally do. I open raise AJo UTG, and I would like my hand a lot better if it was ATs.

Action from SB is telling me that I am beat, should I think differently.

Hmm, let me see, UTG open raises, folded to me in the SB, and I semicoldcall with JT of hearts. BB calls.

Flop T64 with two hearts.

I bet, BB calls, UTG raises, I threebet....

Or another scenario, theat might have played in SBs mind.

UTG open raises, SB coldcalls with JT of clubs, BB calls.

Flop T64 twotone with hearts. SB bets, BB calls, UTG raises for an obvious freecard with his AK of hearts, well, he don'
t get not free card here, and I can charge the fish BB extra for whatever he is chasing, I threebet, they both call. See, I knew I was ahead.

Anyway, there are two scenarios, where the SB threebet, and you were ahead at the time. I probably call down.

Thanks Bob.
I am just getting back into SS a little. I was suprised by the aggression because of tha fact that he is OOP v.s 2 others who have acted in ways to make him even more vulnerable on the turn and river... which is probably the reason why you as the SB would charge more on the flop rather than losing more on the turn. Thanks

I agree with everyone saying to raise pf, but I think limping is ok sometimes too.

I get to sd.

no reads?

for some reason i want to raise the turn, not fold. i guarantee it's closer to a raise than a fold.

you are ahead too often to give up here. in fact, even if behind you are profitable to draw to like a 2.5outer. combine the times you are ahead with the redraw if behind and we need to showdown here alot.
