I'll call it the next hand in the series but it's at a 0.25/0.50 table...
with brutal recent results I decided to drop down for a bit to get back in the groove and I came across this hand:

PokerRoom 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (6 handed) internettexasholdem.com

Preflop: Hero is SB with 2d.gif, as.gif.
2 folds, CO calls, Button calls, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: (4 SB) jc.gif, ac.gif, 2h.gif (4 players)
Hero bets, BB calls, CO calls, Button folds.

Turn: (3.50 BB) td.gif (3 players)
Hero bets, BB raises, CO folds, Hero 3-bets, BB calls.

River: (9.50 BB) 8h.gif (2 players)
Hero bets, BB calls.

Final Pot: 11.50 BB

One thing I am sure which will be said is to fold preflop; A-x offsuit is just no good even for half a bet.

Other than that, I probably wimp out and slow down on the turn and just call down after being raised (I still put the first bet in of course) but I don't really know what is right. After bb just calls turn, I probably b/c river.

Fold preflop, seriously.

I like the rest of the hand. Could easily be a worse two pair.

I find it pretty much impossible to put a .25/.5 player on a range without a good read. That leaves us to play our hand. We have two pair. Looks fine. But yeah fold A-rag PF even in the SB. About all it's good for is an LP steal.

Iactually don't mind the limp from the small blind, getting 8-1 on the half bet, and only a couple of limpers in. With that said, I think you played it well. I wouldn't slow down here either, he probably hit an A on the flop and decided to raise the turn but you're most likely still ahead with 2 pair.

odds are even better then 8:1 because completing blind is only 10 cents in pokerroom 0.25/0.50
