Preflop: Hero is UTG with J, J.
Hero raises to $4, 2 folds, SB calls $3.50, 1 fold.

Flop: ($9) 9, T, 7 (2 players)

griffey24 is on a distinguished road
 The straight draw definitely makes me wanna call here... and its not a huge bet.

Its too easy for villain to have a draw on this board.. 108, 98, 78 and though unlikely J10 would all play this flop agressively.

I think I peel one off here on the turn, and see what he does on the river.

 If you're gonna fold on this turn you might as well fold the flop. I'm calling this and possibly a blank river.

btw stack sizes are incredible for a 0.10$ BB game lol

I'd call, but I'm a station.

Fold the flop if you're folding a pretty blank turn.

The gig is up. . . Depending on the hand, I move the decimal point one space to the right and seem to get better answers. Granted the game isn't quite the same at those levels.

 AT 10 NL THIS IS AN INSTACALL!!!!

ok serious now. There is a difference between 10 NL and 100 NL though, it's generally more passive. I don't mind this fold. If you were going to call the flop though you should fold the turn.

Then again, if i'm going to go the generally more passive route with 10NL i'd have to also assume they over-value their hands a little bit more. I think it's pretty marginal so it may not matter either way.
