Last one for now.

It's early, no reads

I would typically fold preflop, but a call is not terrible. What do you plan to do if you flop an A on a similar board without pairing your kicker though?

The rest of this hand plays itself easily, and I'm getting my money in there very similarly to how you did.

I called there because There were four callers + the blinds already in, so I was basically going for 2 pair or better, calling small bets with my A, but I considered the minraiser may have a better A, so I wouldn't invest too much with just top pair. And I could dump it pretty easily.

I called preflop for implied odds.
