Pot the flop, bet 2/3 pot on turn if 6, J, 9 or 8 falls. Bet 1/2 pot on turn for any other card, fold to a reraise on all street against most players. If a 6, J, 9 or 8 falls and you get called on the turn, I would most likely check call the river, but again, it depends on the player.

Could the advice be more different?
If the table is loose passive, and your image is strong, I would raise that hand even from the SB, reduce the field, and use that ace as a scare card. Between the times you win uncontested and the times you hit the nuts and stack someone, you will usually make up for the times you run into a bigger hand.
