not with 3 others involved mate no, heads up yeah id lead out, but here Im check folding everytime.

Yeah Im probably completing just because of the odds were getting and the fact that theres probably no other
ace out there with the action, and were very deep and can afford to check fold no probs if we miss.

I'd complete here but I don't think I'd lead out. If you want to continue in the hand I don't think I mind check/calling depending on how the action turns out.

I always get in trouble in SB with hands like this. For those of you who advocate completing, what flops (other than A4x or 235) would you bet? If an A hits, do you bet? Do you check/call? Check and bet the turn if it checks around? It just seems to me that there are a lot more ways to lose money here than to make money.

yeah, lead any ace. With the preflop action youve got to assume its good until your shown otherwise. Yeah its not a brilliant spot but your getting good odds to compensate.

i led (just did't seem to be a flop to hit anyone) i would heads up probably fire a second bullet but i got raised and folded. ive decided in future(its already happened once) to dump this trash even for half bets if already more than 1 limper. i think i save chips in the long run. suited i would always complete.
