Looks OK -- if your read that he's passive is reliable, I suppose you could fold on the turn. I have a tough time laying this down though unless I'm sure this guy's super-straightforward.

looks good to me.

Looks fine. The real problem here is if the button bets the river. Maybe this is one of those check/call vs. bet/fold situations?

Wow, tough hand. I would have probably played it like you did, but I am not any good.

We have to ask, if you had the J, would you raise here? Or would you wait until the river to raise? I am finding out there are more people who raise when the board pairs heads up and they don't have it. Heads up, I could see a 3-bet here. If he caps, call down.

Villain had A/images/graemlins/club.gif 7/images/graemlins/spade.gif. The raise on the turn was a little out of character for him, but it worked out for me in the end.

Thanks for your responses.

Villain's turn raise is actually pretty good. You should add this move to your playbook.

His raise scared the hell out of me. It just wasn't something that I expected from a sLP-P.

This looks fine. I'd call a river bet if one came.
