Gutless?
I was going thru some old histories and found this. Can't remember the read I had on this guy. I know that's a very important aspect, but I'm wondering if I could still get some feedback.
Thanks.

Well, risk 300 to win 1200, 4:1 seems like pretty good odds. how likely is it he has the 5 or the spades flush? with as little as a 20% chance of a bluff you're breaking even.
He might have, say, pocket 9 or the king of spades good kicker. I'd say go for the crying call.
Blinds are still fairly small. It's good to save some chips for later if you're sure you're beat. Seems weak, but not unreasonable.
A reraise would be a super scary, super aggresive play. worth thinking about once in a while.
