better ace would have reraised preflop...you have outs vs A2 and if he had 22 then we reload...you will see a pp and a bad ace enought o make this profitable...said this many time but hero folds at low buy in=bad poker

I'd only worry about 22 and AQ here. AK would have reraised and pairs are down to 2 outs. Weaker aces down to 3 outs or a split.

I stick it in here.

Pardon me asking, but why did you check the flop? IMO, you likely have the deck crushed, or the other way around, and it will stay that way. Not a lot of crushed hands bet. Is my thinking wrong here [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Dude, a fold here is an insult to poker itself.

Depending on buy-ins, this could be a big pocket pair, a bad ace, who knows. It is of course possible you're looking at an overzealous player with a better ace or a full boat, but even *most* fairly bad players recognize that the best way to get full value out of such a hand is not to go all in on the flop. I like the check on the flop if you meant to induce a bluff, and now that it's happened, stick it in.
