I have no idea why I was raising with A8o, but I knew 2 of the players were weak and wouldnt cold call, while the PF raiser only had $0.85
Is it as simple as not raising A8, or is it worth it in this instance?

thanks!

wait for a better spot, just fold that junk.

fold, terrible hand in terrible position in a raised pot
