Nixed
Been bored, had a few bucks left on fulltilt, found their horse 1 sngs. This one came up in the Razz round, thought I'd ask

I realize I got lucky here drawing, but did I play it right? Pretty much my question is A2 ok to defend and then the call on 6th drawing perfect.

Full Tilt Poker Game #952681392: $1 + $0.25 Sit & Go (6421184), Table 1 - 150/300 Ante 25 - Limit Razz - 0:35:53 ET - 2006/08/31
Seat 1: jcmf112 (3,315)
Seat 3: Mikehil (2,705)
Seat 4: eyak29 (1,855)
Seat 5: oldelpaso8 (1,955)
Seat 7: nixed (2,170)
jcmf112 antes 25
Mikehil antes 25
eyak29 antes 25
oldelpaso8 antes 25
nixed antes 25
*** 3RD STREET ***
Dealt to jcmf112 [4d]
Dealt to Mikehil [9c]
Dealt to eyak29 [Ts]
Dealt to oldelpaso8 [9d]
Dealt to nixed [2d Ah] [Js]
nixed is high with [Js]
nixed brings in for 50
jcmf112 folds
Mikehil folds
eyak29 folds
oldelpaso8 completes it to 150
nixed calls 100

I have an A2 draw, is this worth defending with?

*** 4TH STREET ***
Dealt to oldelpaso8 [9d] [Ad]
Dealt to nixed [2d Ah Js] [3s]
oldelpaso8 bets 150
nixed calls 150

This seems obvious if calling on 3rd is ok
*** 5TH STREET ***
Dealt to oldelpaso8 [9d Ad] [2s]
Dealt to nixed [2d Ah Js 3s] [4s]
oldelpaso8 bets 300
nixed calls 300

So does this
*** 6TH STREET ***
Dealt to oldelpaso8 [9d Ad 2s] [Td]
Dealt to nixed [2d Ah Js 3s 4s] [3d]
oldelpaso8 bets 300
nixed calls 300

This was questionable, but all the other discards were bad cards for me and anything 5-9 gives me a possible win right?
*** 7TH STREET ***
Dealt to nixed [2d Ah Js 3s 4s 3d] [5c]
oldelpaso8 bets 300
nixed raises to 600
oldelpaso8 calls 300

*** SHOW DOWN ***
nixed shows [5c 2d Js 3s 4s 3d Ah] (5,4,3,2,A)
oldelpaso8 mucks
nixed wins the pot (3,125) with 5,4,3,2,A
*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot 3,125 | Rake 0

Yeah, you played it fine. Technically, you should probably raise 5th street, since unless villain has 2 unpaired wheel cards in the hole, you have the best hand. (And since he raised 3rd from a steal position, he could have just about anything).

i would raise on 3rd and 5th

Raising on 3rd would be terrible. He may not have A2 in the hole, but if he has any two cards below a 9, you are a dog and since you have the J showing, he will know that you are a dog and will just re-raise you. He may be bluffing with a worse hand once in a while, but nowhere near enough to make a raise profitable.

I would have completed here, tried to take the pot down right away, prevented any steal attempts and then if called, raise on 5th like another suggested.

I fold on 3rd. If this hand continues on, I call 4th since you did catch one card you need. I raise 5th, you're a favorite over a made 9 here. call 6th, raise river.
