Ultimate Bet 0.05/0.10 Hold'em (8 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx (http://www.zerodivide.cx/converter)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with J/images/graemlins/spade.gif, A/images/graemlins/spade.gif.
Hero Raises4 folds</font>, Button calls, SB completes, [color=#666666]1 fold</font>.

Flop: (3 SB) 9/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 3/images/graemlins/club.gif [color=#0000FF](3 players)</font>
[color=#CC3333]SB bets</font>, [color=#CC3333]Hero raises</font>, Button calls, SB calls.


Turn: (4.50 BB) A/images/graemlins/club.gif [color=#0000FF](3 players)</font>
[color=#CC3333]SB bets</font>, Hero ?


I raised the flop to sort of see where I was at, and to hopefully get button to fold and clean up my outs. But these stop and gos still confuse me. Am I ahead enough to make a raise here, or should I call it down?

call flop intending to fold turn ui

raise turn given previous action.... (note: im influenced pretty heavily here by the fact its .05/.1)

Not familiar with .05/0.10 so I'm assuming slightly loose / reasonable

Flop: I'm not sure the raise gets you much. I think you can tell for cheap that AJ against a (AK/AQ/anyPair) that is betting into you again is not good.

I'm strongly considering folding this on the flop. Pretty slim chance of redraw to flush and pot is small

Turn: Now this sucks. I wish I was out of the hand earlier. I'm in call down mode to the end and I don't think I'm gonna like it. I don't feel I can raise the Turn to knock out the 3rd player because I may very likely be in trouble. Calling doesn't protect anything

If I can call down I'll take it but it seem hard to play this hand with any confidence at this point.

Since its .05/.10 I would think play it all aggressively and agree that turn raise would be a strong.

What if level was $0.5 / $1 - Would advice be the same?

Call down - he has the 2 pair he's representing a lot and you have outs, and the real possibility of a 3-bet sucks.

Either call or raise. Don't fold.

How does SB complete after Hero raises? And why are there only 3SB in the pot when it was raised PF and it's 3-handed?

Grunching.

I am not sure about the flop raise, but you need to raise again on the turn.

Raise against most opponents.

PS: On the flop, I'd rather call than raise.
