Yes, I would go all-in (after fake 15sec tank)
I’m certainly not folding here. I may not be shoving though. Villain has enough boat combos in his range that I don’t think I can find a shove. I probably call, but I may be too passive in spots like this.
You absolutely cant fold. I'd understand the question if villain bet 3x pot on the river but with this small of a sizing I'd expect to see plenty of worse valuehands.
As a general rule of thumb, you can't ever fold if you are beating a portion of villains valuerange.

In my experience, shove here and you're losing to boats a lot. It sucks ass, but I don't think you're playing too passive. I personally feel after getting burned enough times that a call is pretty standard. Yeah, he can call with some worse flushes but meh. It's just so ugly when they snap it off and ship the pot after you did a dance thinking the nf was good xD
A8s may be a loose open from utg depend on the table, flop i prefer to check and maybe call a bet, there are 2 player left to act, your equity is poor and you need ton of fold equity here.
Turn ok, river raise, 9x still pay well

5-handed , I can't think of a suited ace we're not suppose to open.
pre is fine.
flop is X/F - your betting a board that hits CCers range, your not going to make opps fold a better hand, *POSSIBLY* get a call with a worse hand buts its unlikely to get to SD
turn is X/F - your not getting odds to draw at a clean 8 outer *even though you will fold the best hand sometimes, like i said on flop its unlikely to get to SD without making more mistakes*
As played... river is raise. he has smaller flushes,66,22. JJ-99 3b pre, J9 shouldnt be in there in CO, BB possibly. given that range he will have plenty of worse hands to call with.
Why only 2bb pre?
either x/f flop or B/B/B this runout.
As played raise a normal amount. Too much behind to shove, but it might be ok at 2nl.
