Hmm, readless that could be a fold.
Just playing to improve.

Unless this guy is a super donk, I'm folding. I'm not risking my stack on an overpair, on a paired board, to a guy that tried to limp something in and then decided to call. At this level I give these guys the benefit of the doubt when they go crazy, there will be better hands to stack this guy.

I would fold here. If calling is a mistake it will be a bigger one than folding.

The pot is still small and we're facing some who has taken passive lines up until now given his 1.0 aggression factor and the fact that he's limp calling raises preflop. Not a good spot to stack off with 1 pair facing a shove unless you have some reads.

This guy will be bad enough that you can wait for a better spot where you aren't facing heat like this. He's playing enough hands that you won't have to wait forever to get his money either.

At each higher level, new pleasures and insights await us--ones not even suspected when we started out. We can take this as far as we want--in any human activity there is always a higher level to which we can aspire."

This

Although, it wouldn't surprise me in the least to see him show up with Tx (x being J+) a lot of the time.

I'd still fold though.

Absent any reads, I'd fold.

Villian attempted to limp pre, then called a small raise. He could have ANYTHING, including A 7 suited or suited connectors with a 7.

You might win, but it's not worth the risk.

Why are we folding? What range are we putting this guy on? Given he may have hit his seven but we're seeing AT, KT, QT, JT, pocket pairs, and flush draws way too much here, no?

And Schya...try not to post results!

That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.
