[/ QUOTE ]Looking back over this, I don't mind calling the preflop raise (in the BB already with another caller and a suited connector, it seems profitable to see a flop here) but what I would have done is put a teaser bet of a buck after the flop. If I got raised, assume an Ace and leave. Maybe he just calls and at worst I saved a buck and at best I can possibly control the action, maybe even getting to the river without folding to a big bet to see if I hit my flush or trips.
I feel the fold was appropriate given the cost of the call.
