Blind attack 10-20

Paradise 10-20.
I have absolutly no stats for these two guys. This is a starting full ring table then these players are probably not SH players (that explain why i have no stats on them).

4Handed. I'm button with the A5o. UTg fold to me, I raise. SB 3bet and BB cap. I decide to fold coz 1)i have no read at all, 2) i believe that their most likely holding are a better Ax and a pocket higher than 5.
Too tight? should have not raise?
(excuse my REALly poor english

)

easy fold

This is a good fold. You can fold a higher kicker here too. Even hands like A9o, KJo, etc. are candidates for folding; they should generally be mucked unless the SB and BB are overaggressive in this spot preflop.

What do people do with A5s here?

I agree fold A5o. A5s, I call just because it's what I would do. It's probably a lot closer to a fold given the situation.

I`d still fold it but it`s probably close. This could be a situation where we prefer A5s to A6s up to maybe A8 or A9s.
