Good? Bad?

It worked, but I don't want to be results oriented. My thought at the time was that we were probably about even, and I had some good fold equity. No reads.

You could reraise preflop here with the Button, but calling is ok too. Flop is pretty standard. Hopefully your A and K outs are clean too.

You got your money in as a 3:2 favorite.

EDIT: Whoops, I was thinking about a different situation where you're a 3:2 favorite. According to Pokerstove you're on the assend of 52:48. With the dead money in the pot, this is about a 0EV move, but I like it for meta-game reasons.

PPS: The pre-flop raise is a bit excessive. $1.25 or $1.50 should be fine.

Well I called, because I figured it would make the most in case an A or K flopped, and lose the least in case I got re-raised and basically had to fold. Not sure if that's the right play though. I'm fiarly certain the flop is good.

I didn't raise PF. I make it $1 + $0.25 for every 2 limpers, usually.

Whoops, sorry. I confused you with MP2.
