Results in a bit.



I think the critical street here is the flop... i have the high nuts (for now), and a low draw that quite well was live. A call here disguises my hand, if the board doesnt pair on the turn, i can get a raise in there, hopefully with more people in the pot. But, a 3-bet on the flop may have protected my hand a bit more. Also, there is a good chance that the original bettor may re-raise, and it will get capped anyways, with me being passive. (although if you look at the SB throughout the hand, on every street, he bet-calls)

Of course, this is micro-limits, so who knows what any of these people are thinking.

I like the flop call. You do not want to chase out the players behind you.

I like waiting until the bets double to show your strength.
