Don't get there by listening to the advice above [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Ok enough smarta$$ comments. I think a fold here is fine. Small pot on relatively coordinated board and you have a TPMK. No real reason to continue.

I call down. I think even a fairly passive player is going to raise better aces then Hero has pre-flop, and would bet the flop when checked to if he had any piece of it.

The only hand that makes sense to be behind is A2s. Of course, being behind a slowplayed KT or something isn't out of the question either though.

I think we will see weak aces here often enough to warrant calling. You havn't shown any aggression on the hand, so your bet looks like a steal attempt on the turn. I think even a passive player is raising any ace here.

This is a pretty low content comment, but I think that the way this hand optimally would have played out would be:

Hero raises pre-flop. Hero bets flop. Hero gets in sweet check-raise on the turn.

If I got there this way, I'd fold. This is a stupid slowplay from a 2/4 LPP more than it is a fancy free-showdown play with a K or T.

Why are we jumping to conclusions that a LPP is making any kind of slowplay or fancy play here?

The hand screams of a fish playing Axs, with 0 fanciness at all. Limps pre-flop from middle position, wakes up when his ace hits on the turn.
