    feelin' allright
    Pre, I'd just over-limp with the sc to see a cheap flop, and call a min raise from the BB. You've got fairly good equity against his pfr range.

    With the BB at 40% c/r OTF there's a TON of air that he's going to have and by calling you know nothing about the strength of his hand. I'd raise to about $9 or $10 and seriously consider folding if he shoves.

    OTT, his small bet smells like weakness or a suck bet with a K. Again, by calling you know nothing about the strength of his hand...I'd thow in a pot sized re-raise and re-evaluate after his actions. I mean seriously...passive play is for pussies! Why? Because it likes THE nuts. Which your hand isn't. If he calls or re-raises then he's probably got you beat.

    As played, I'd call the river. You'll need to be absolutely certain that you're beat to lay this down.

    Edit: Has he went to showdown lately and if so what did he have?
