kicker issues with A8

[PapiChulo503]

That helps a little bit. A few more things people on this forum will ask before giving you an answer are as follows:
1-How many spots payout?
2-How long is each level?
3-How much longer before the blinds go up?
4-Do you have any other reads on the table?

Im sure theres more but these are just a off the top of my head. I think you got punked, the button was probably trying to steal with his 3x raise pre-flop. After the SB checked I would have bet more on the flop to see where I stand. Im thinking somewhere between 1\2 and 2\3 the pot.

Hope this helps, you need more info to get to get an accurate analysis from one of the Masters on the forum.

I can't remember these details for the life of me. I wish I had. But it was only shites n giggles, so I didn't really pay TOO Much close attention. I think this is why I don't do so good at N.L. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

The pay out was top three, like 50/30/20
Other reads? SB was experienced and tighter than the majority of the table, not super tight though.
Levels? Blinds went up after a player was elminiated (not my idea - i'd prefer like 15 mins)
Am I folding the best hand here to often? am I good here most of the time??
