Default weak ace 1/2

Is this a too passive line? Opp is average 30/6/1. I took a wa/wb line with a weak ace in a multiway pot.

I usually bet out the flop 4-way.

I think raising is an option on the flop but the pot is so small so protecting your hand is less of an issue. However, there is a bunch of draws out there that will pay 2 bets so maybe you should just raise for value. I think its close but I prolly play the spot more passive than most.

Pretty much the same issue on the turn. Bunch of draws will call 2 bets here. But its questionable whether you have the best hand.

River is standard IMO. Fold if someone raises behind you

@Oink it is 5 way, we are first to act, someone is betting this flop for sure. check&gt;bet because we can sometimes make a good fold.

I c/r this flop. CO can have a better ace, but he raises pf with AQ and AK especially with 1 limper imo. We have 50 outs to chop against A9-A6. Moreover the 5 backdoor flush worths something HU especially against a red as. The pot is small now, but it will be not small at the river if we just call the flop.

Well if you think it will be bet you should check.

Thinking more about this hand I think you have to raise the flop there. Fpignouf is making good points
