I know the pre-flop call is borderline. Although, I usually complete from SB with this hand. Is my thinking flawed? How is post-flop?

Perfecto -- although I can make arguments for checking the turn.

What do you put him on?

Do you play the same against a couple mid-late position limpers?

I put him on a flush draw. Of course it depends on how many limpers and type of table. I sometimes check-fold TPNK EP against a field of limpers, sometimes not.

Do you like?

Well, I can't think of any hands that you can beat. But if your opponent is a moron, then maybe you did win. Can't really give much advice without knowing a lot about your opponent.

I'd probably muck it preflop, but there isn't anything wrong with playing it.

Your post-flop play is perfect on all streets.

I don't see any hand that you can beat that isn't a busted flush draw. Basically I don't think your hand is good 36% of the time here. I'd need a read to call here.

You guys give these players way too much credit. Don't underestimate the donkey factor.

There is one king left in the deck, the odds that villian has it are slim.

The chance that villian has a busted flush draw alone makes this a profitable call. Factor in the very good chance that villian can have AA/QQ and any other pocket pair makes this a very profitable call.

If you're outkicked, you're outkicked. So be it. Call the bet.
