Small suited AX is iffy to call a raise but in this situation with 2 cold-callers before you, I would have called too.

On the flop, I feel checking is correct too as I'll be leery of a bottom pair albeit an overcard and a BDF.

With an unknown BB betting out on the turn on a 2, I would be asking myself how would it help him? He called a PF bet and if he is somewhat of a decent player it's unlikely he has a JX, TX or similar hand - probably JT or a set. I would have just called.

The fact that you raised, and he still led out on the river with the scary A, I think your raise was too aggressive.

He outplayed you in this hand and you fell for it. Next deal. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
