i dont raise this preflop and i lol at the thought of raising the flop.

I agree raisning the flop doesn't sound all that great, but I'm beginning to think it's something I do more than never. I also usually raise pf. Should I stop this completely?

I would never raise this preflop after a couple of limpers, dont let the ace fool you into thinking that this is anything more than a drawing hand just limp along and hope to hit some hearts

As played Im sure we can call the flop based on the great pot odds and the fact that we close the action

Im a bit lost as to why you would want to raise the flop though ?

A5s is a very terrible isolating hand especially with 2 limpers. This is a definite fold preflop but besides preflop you played the hand the way I would have played it.
