Default $12 FTP playing A3 in SB

I only played 21 hands vs villain, and had once given him a walk from the SB. What would you do here, I didn't want to fold preflop but how would you play it?

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t50/t100
5 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t2470
CO: t3965
Button: t1225
Hero: t2250
BB: t3590

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is SB with 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
3 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to t300</font>, BB calls t200 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t350)</font>.

Flop: 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (t600, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">Hero bets t400</font>, BB calls t400 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t1000)</font>.

Turn: 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (t1400, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">Hero ?</font>

I'd just complete here and lead out most flops for t125.

Agreed, raising pre here puts you in a bad spot after the flop. Villain could have a huuuuge range of hands from anything to a PP to a made clubs draw. I complete and lead flop as its trashy and hes likely to put u on trash in the sb. On turn i prolly bet same amount, or something sketchy that looks like you want a call or for him to push and obv fold to a reraise. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Effective stack sizes make it kind of awkward. I would probably just complete.
