SB is LAG.

Online $2/$4 TEXAS HOLD'EM

I'm BB with A /images/graemlins/diamond.gif 4 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif
UTG call, 2 fold, MP1 call, 2 fold, Button call, SB completes, option checks.

(5sb)
*** FLOP *** : [ T /images/graemlins/heart.gif 5 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif Q /images/graemlins/diamond.gif ]
SB bets, I call, 3 fold

(3.5bb)
*** TURN *** : [ T /images/graemlins/club.gif ]
SB bets, I call

<font color="blue"> Razor thin call here. I gave myself 1.5 outs for an Ace as it's unlikely SB has a T. I can pretty much guarantee he will lead the river, so I'll be able to pop him for 2 BB if I hit.

Though the implied odds were there, the pot, IMHO, just isn't big enough to chase, espically with the board paired. You have 9 outs for the flush, but you could already be drawing dead. I'd probably adjust the diamonds to something like 7 outs and the ace to a half an out, meaning you are going to need 6.1-1 odds. Cut your losses and get out!

Since the pot is HU a paired board is much less of a concern. Therefore, between the A and flush draw you are clean to see the river card in a 4.5BB pot.
And he is almost never going to be drawing dead so lets not talk about it.
