    Yeah looks okay to me, the river bet is a bit iffy in my opinion I would have bet less. You gotta know the other ace is out there and if someone has a kicker above a 7 you are screwed. Good fold.

    I'd have smooth called the flop, let the other people do the betting for you. If you're convinced someone has the ace, and it costs too much to risk your bottom kicker, then fold (and you did). But you do have to realize that, assuming one of them has an ace, it's possible that they've filled their boat by the river, and if they havent, their kicker is probably higher than yours.

    Guess the cheap limp of A2s is okay, but in EP it sucks when you get stuck in positions like this.

    He was BB and it was free to check

    I think you played it well also. I like the reraise on the flop, just so you can see where you stand. You dont want to go slowplaying this with a 2 kicker because its very possible one of the limpers has Axs. You have to be suspicious of BTUBBS after he smooth called all those raises and then pushes in on the river.

    i dislike the original flop bet. Half the pot isnt going to give you any information other than any 2 cards is going to reraise you and try to represent an ace. BTUBBS should have sent off huge red flags when he smooth called your bet KK's raise and your reraise. The river bet is terrible
