Hello,

Do you think the hand was played correctly?

Preflop I dont like just calling with A2, but it might be a good option sometimes. Not too sure. The 3bet preflop might not have been an appropriate size. Also, I dont know if I should have cbet this flop and for this amount.

Just call preflop. If 3betting I would likely just shove.

I would prefer to go bit bigger also with small 3bet sizing. So around 3x. Issue with 2.5x is that villain get sooo nice pot odds in position.

Flop I would x-c or x-f depending of sizing. Up to half pot calling at least. I think x-f turn is not good. There are so many draws we are ahead which we completely unblock. Question is if shoving or x-c make more sense and I am not sure really. But would not be in this spot anyway with different flop and preflop approach.
