gotta fold pre
lead the flop, or check raise it at least

bet more on turn.. (you should nearly never bet 1/2 pot or less in NL)

on river, I like a 1/3 blocking bet..and folding when raised. blocking bet looks good since it may get called by Ax and there aren't any missed draw from his TAG range of hands for him to bluff raise you, and also you can probably safely fold if he raises you

It's your own fault for playing it so lamely. Also I fold preflop.

If your whole plan was to fold the river, then why make that weakass bet on the turn AND call his raise.

[img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img], well when I bet on the turn, I wanted it to look weak so he would raise me, and I would call...then hopeing he would let it go on the river if bluffing or probably only bet big when I'm behind. The A scared me more, not only because I might be beat, but because he's not scared of it.

Fold preflop.

When you induce bluffs... you have to call them. Remember that section of TOP? If you're planning to fold you should try to inhibit bluffs from your opponent. If you're planning to call, then you should encourage your opponent to bluff. In this hand you showed a lot of weakness and encouraged your opponent to play back at you... but then you didn't know where you were at.
