Yeah, raise pre-flop. It makes this hand play itself when you just go all-in over his raise.

Open-limping in late position should generally only be done for metagame reasons, I think. In this case, raise if you're going to play the hand.

I would 3-bet his weak ass raise.

Man, I'd have pushed this on the flop and been done with it, this decision sux. Flush draws normally push this flop if they are gonna push at all. A set would c/push the turn or have pushed the flop b/c of the obvious draws and how well you like your hand and probably even raised from the BB preflop. ATo+ might think they are good here but I don't see villan not raising that pre-flop nor do I see him calling your $10 re-raise on the flop though Axs might. A8/A6 are the most likely here as is Axs, and since it was free so is a flopped straight.

Really, you are drawing dead to only two (likely) hands and probably have quite a few others beat and you're getting 2-1 odds. It's a crying call, but I call nonetheless.

 that is one weird turn bet if he has a straight
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?
