SB 23/6/1.9 over 66 hands
UTG no read, not enough hands
MP1 41/0/5 over 20 hands

once SB called, this is an obvious river fold, however, it took SB about 20 seconds to call, and while he was thinking, i decided that i was going to call MP1's bet with my lowly dueces if SB folded, since MP1 had an aggression factor of 5, i figured he very well may have missed a draw, and when SB checked, decided to take a shot at it.

Assuming SB folds, what would you think of this river call?
Also assuming SB folds, what about a raise, MP1 maybe lay down a 6 or 7?

I think it's loose and going to lose more than win. With only 20 hands you really don't have a solid read on MP1 as being "out-of-line".

This is worse than calling. MP1 has called down the whole way - why would he fold a better hand than yours for only one more bet?
