Bet the flop.

I thought about it, but with no sidepot to win, is it really worth it? Or is that just tournament orientated thinking, trying to ensure the short stack loses?

Your hand is a coinflip with unpaired overcards; if you can get them to fold, they've made a mistake. You also don't want anyone picking up a flush draw on 4th to semibluff you out.

Ok. How about the river? Would he really bet this way with a hand that has me beat?

[/ QUOTE ]Whether I call there depends on my opinion of BB and an educated guess about his possible range.

If he DOES have you beat, though, it's because he picked up an OESD free-of-charge on the turn.

I honestly don't think I'd call this from a decent player.
From a donk, I would.
