You'll be OOP, but with great implied odds, and you close the action pre-flop.
Furthermore, when you call your hand is very well disguised.

I didn't do the math, I don't think you have direct odds to call, but if this one hits...

BU when cold call has, AJs, KQs, JJ-99, AQ

If you cal with A2s is only for flush, if BU is a fish I call no brain, but in a 3way pot vs 2 regs isn't a good spot, however A2s is better than Broadways Suited without A

I think calling is ok just be aware your looking to hit better than 1 pair to get involved in a big pot postflop imo.

Vs 2 regs I don't think you can call oop, your hand becomes pretty face up to them imo. You will miss a ton of flops and x/f or have to c/r your way out of it.

Its a 4 bet or fold to me. V1 in the co should play fit or fold with V2 on the butn behind. You can fold to a shove from V1 if that's the case or they both flat the 4 bet.

If you get your 4 bet flatted by V1 or both you have an Ace blocker and have some playability with the suited Ace. However, it could get ugly if an Ace hits the flop and V1 or V2 has your Ace dominated. Its close for me i think i would fold, unless i had good info on V1,V2 in 4 bet pots.

I'd fold - it's just not worth it, being so OOP. You raised and showed aggression which is usually interpretted as a range much higher than A2s by the other guys, so the guys behind you in most cases have a better starting hand than you...

When you're in position, this hand is very playable. When you're out of position, you'll just spend a lot of chips finding out that it is not...

Its at best marginal and close to breakeven call. If I were to guess, its probably a fold, but A4/A5 is a call.

I think your range should be similar to what it is when BTN folds and you are heads up vs CO, except you should be moving your 4betting hands to your calling range.

Yes, you are getting better odds, but there is also a third player in the pot and you are still OOP.
