If you put one of your opponents on A2xx its a fold. Not worth chasing half. If btn is likely to have a str and BB is loose I would take the gamble.

I am going to assume that they suck badly and that your A3 is good because the stakes are pretty low. I would call.

Despite the limits, I think the BB calling means you're quartered at best, but most likely whipsawed. BB's flat call here on the turn states

'I have a lock in one direction and would love to keep this three way.'

You've got enough behind that you won't know the ugly truth till it's too late. Weak-tight FNJ says 'fold'.

Fold turn. .05/.10 is about flogging your opponents with the nuts.
Your flop bet also seems bad to me. Against fewer opponents, where you would have a decent chance of taking down the pot right away and your chances of being good for the low were higher, it would be good. In this situation, though, it seems spewy. I could see putting out a small bet (that was likely to be called in many places) as a way of building a pot in case your flush comes, but the big bet doesn't make sense.

I think you can call here and re-evaluate on the river. At the micro-limits games, you have richer implied odds if a spade hits.

I think it is a fold. One problem is that the BB has only 2.40 left after the turn, so your implied odds aren't that great. If both opponents have A2xx, so that they both call when you make your flush, then you still don't win that much because the BB only contributes his original $5.51 to the final pot and you lose 5% to the rake. Also, there would only be 2 2's left in the deck to give you the low on the river. Unless it is the 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] you have no high. Basically you are drawing to 11 or so outs to split and 1 out to scoop. The 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] might not even be outs if one of your opponents has a set. Fold on the turn and don't kick yourself if a spade lands on the river.
