...I like how I played it. Comments are welcome though, mainly pre-flop and on the flop.

PokerStars $5/$10. I just sat down and moved up from $3/$6 so I have no reads on these guys yet.

4 folds, Hero raises, 2 folds, Button 3-bets, Villain caps, BB folds, Hero calls, Button calls.

I think 1:4.5 is a little thin for the PF cc, but I always suck at this math stuff.

I'm not crazy about the preflop play. The raise is OK, although a touch light, but calling 2 more bets back to you with A8s is pretty weak unless you know the other players in the hand are lousy. Everything else seems fine to me.

Stars is 9-handed, right? Your preflop narration is confusing but I assume you are at Button+2.

The preflop raise is good but I would definitely not call two more against sound players.

Rest is good. Nice hand.

He's getting about 5.5-1 on this call.

Told you I suck at the math stuff. Even at 5.5:1 the PF cc is a little thin, right?
