RAISE PREFLOP.


But since you didn't... fold the flop. It's only 5 small bets when the action's to you. Even if all your outs are clean (3 Aces, 2 Ten's, and 1.5 for backdoor flush = 6.5), you're not getting the odds to continue in this hand.

If there's any doubt, look at your read: "utg is typical la/p..."

(Fold on the turn is definitely correct.)

there are two people to act after you after you get bet into on the flop... fold the small pot.

Raise Preflop, this hand would play totally different had you did this.
Flop: Your opponent is La/P, meaning his betting here probably indicates top pair or better. On first glance it looks like you probably have 6 outs. You're close but still on the bad side of getting correct odds from the pot and you aren't closing the action. This is a fold. When you look a little deeper this is more clear due to possible straight that may already exist and your A could complete an OESD. Thus your 6 outs are pretty tainted.
Turn:Since you are still around definately fold the turn.
