A8s Trapped preflop

[rhayder]

No read:

Preflop: got trapped between some raisers but still the pot is multiway and I think I might be able to make money if the flop is nice to me.

Postflop: The pot is kind of large so I take one off. If I count A & 8s this gives me 5 outs.. odds 8.5 to 1. Pott odds are 13.5 to 1. However given all the raising .. really I need an 8 to improve, so if I have 3 outs 15 to 1. I think my call on the flop is marginal. I don't see how I could have folded preflop even though the call was marginal.

Looking forward to your thoughts.
