I fold since I'm getting such crappy odds.

BB is a an alright sLA-A - MP1 was only at the table for a few hands.

Ed Miller once told me if its a close decision between calling and folding, fold if the pot is small.

I try to keep my Ed Miller close to the computer when I'm playing, so maybe he informed my decision a bit.

That's results oriented thinking.

Nice hand.

Since it was the unknown that was raising, I think a fold is in order. If it had been the sLA-A doing the raising, I might have considered a re-raise, depending on his post flop aggression levels. I don't think I would ever just call here.

This pot is still small and without reads it's safe to fold. 4-1 to call or so? Not good enough. You also have to remember that you don't close the betting. If BB is LA-A he could easily 3bet and it could be capped to you. Get your marginal hand out of there.

The hand stuck in my mind because the back door flush draw came in, but I was seriously considering 3-betting. I need to tone my aggression down a little bit.
