Game is 75-150 five handed at Foxwoods.

Seat 1 BI 4

(loose, defends his BI, makes a lot of 6th street folds)
Seat 2 Folds A

Seat 3 Folds 10

Seat 4 Folds 8

Seat 5 (10

, 8

) A

Typically Seat 5 with the Ace up is an automatic raise, but with the dead cards and the likelihood of a defense by Seat 1, should Seat 5 consider folding?

This is a good straight steal against a small card, but in the words of Chip Reese, it's a one-shot play. Don't go nuts barreling trying to win a pot with nothing in it, but (assuming 15 ante 25 bring) you're getting 4:3 on the steal so if it works half the time you're printing money. If he defends a lot you can still play boards later if they break your way, just don't go down with the ship if nothing happens to favor your board.

You can't fold an ace vs the bringin. End of story.

You should should consider it and then raise

Edit to cut and paste what electrical said. Just cause you raise here doesn’t mandate that you barrel the rest of the steets.
