most people dont limp with and ace from CO, so I dont think it TP. smells like FD but I dk.

Villan almost always has a set or A3 / A7 / AK and rarely a FD

This is the problem with an offsuit A-rag .. when you flop an ace, you either get no action because you are the only one with an ace or you get action and it's hard for you to beat anything = win a small pot or lose a big one.

I usually c/c with those hands .. it's not like you can get 3 streets of value with betting top pair 5 kicker.

Weird line for a FD, looks like he's putting you on a FD with his turn bet. I'd check/call flop and fold if he bets again, and def fold the turn as played.

Important note. It's a $1 tournament with a bunch of just truly awful players. Your edge doesn't come from soulreading people in marginal spots with tpnk, it's relentlessly betting for value with good hands against people that are willing to call down with a very wide range. Just stay away from these spots.
