No reads, out of position this is a fold. It is to easy in this position to be dominated and lose a lot if not all your chips to a better Ace. Wait imo

I dunno---I think I would at least CALL at the size of the raise, imo, it's worth a look at the flop--I doubt you'ld get anymore raises!

A10 Suited is not a good hand here, so offsuit is an easy fold...you are hoping for 2 pair or a straight with those cards which is unlikely...on the button its a call,BB ez fold

you're OOP and the average player's range has you crushed here. fold, if you later find out he's raising half his hands or something then obviously you can adapt accordingly.

I knew it was a fold from this position but it's no fun when you see T T 6 on the flop after you fold. Glad to know I made the right decision. :rolleyes:
