Questions below.

$0.05 NL - Holdem - 8 players

UTG+1: 49.2 BB
MP: 103.2 BB
MP+1: 104.8 BB
CO: 68 BB
BTN: 172.2 BB
SB: 46.2 BB
Hero (BB): 100 BB
UTG: 45.2 BB

SB posts SB 0.4 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has A♣ 8♣

fold, fold, MP calls 1 BB, fold, fold, fold, SB calls 0.6 BB, Hero checks
Questions and thoughts:

Spoiler

should I raise here? With AT, I would probably raise. Maybe A9s against a limper IP, but I'm not sure about A8s against 2 players...

Flop: (3 BB, 3 players) A♦ 8♦ 2♣
SB checks, Hero bets 2.2 BB, fold, SB calls 2.2 BB
Questions and thoughts:

Spoiler

Betting out my monster hand. After a passive pre, I expect to be called by any flushdraw, top pair or middle pair + bd draw

Turn: (7.4 BB, 2 players) 3♥
SB bets 7.2 BB, Hero calls 7.2 BB
Questions and thoughts:

Spoiler

His big donk doesn't make any sense at all. Vs a unknown short stacker, should I shove here?
I don't recall the hand very well, but I think I've just called so he could continue bluffing.

River: (21.8 BB, 2 players) 4♦
SB bets 35.8 BB and is all-in, fold
Questions and thoughts:

Spoiler

When he overbets this river, missing only 1 card for a str8, I don't see how a top2 would win the hand.
I suspect I'm behind a str8 or a set (?)
I basically only beat a bluff, a weird 2pair (43, 32?) or a very improbable AQ-AJ played weirdly

Spoiler

SB wins 20.8 BB

A fish with 100% certainty. Only God knows what he can have...But the 3♥: likely helped him. 45 is not impossible, 33 too, but there are a lot more other combinations. Or he may just decided to VB his ace, or he can have nothing. I need just 37% OTR and I cannot fold.
