75 cents seems good. Probably fold PF though.

Yea, 5 people in pot, your in the SB with an ace, not worth paying 15 cents to see a flop. Your only getting 7 to 1 pot odds.

yeah and if an ace hits, what do you think of your hand? 2 2's is the only scenario apart from A 2 x or 345 that is any good.

Ok, keep playing A2 offsuit out of position. I think it's a bad idea.

Yea, you should never call from SB with 7:1 pot odds, etc.

I mean, its not like your ever going to get trips...

Umm, bet around about pot. I don't see why this is difficult, or where you're going with it.

Likelihood is nobody has anything and you just have to hope your bet gets interpreted as a pot stealer on a non-scary river by someone who has a very marginal calling hand.

re. preflop, calling is pretty standard unless you're a bad player who can't get away from ZOMG TOP PAIR in the face of aggression. Keep in mind that people will generally fold weak aces and raise with strong ones, so we don't necessarily have to be up against another ace here (yes, i know a lot of people love their weak aces, so this is where reads come in i guess).
