A8o out of position, easy fold for me preflop... as played preflop, easy fold on the flop.. I don't see you beating anything here.

This. And try not to spew on the bubble, this is where our patience is supposed to pay off!

Please reread the pokerstrategy articles:

Thanks! ♦

That was my first posted hand and I really appreciate the feedback. I'm going to study the hand charts and guide articles like suggested until I'm more comfortable with my decisions then start splashing out my seed capital. It's nice to know that when I hit a spot I can't work out there's folks happy to give feedback, which hits home more than trying to tell yourself off in isolation!
