reads: BB just say down and CO is 67/0/0 (he doesnt fold)
My flawed thinking told me this was a protected pot since CO doesnt fold.
I didnt consider the BB didnt know it was a protected pot since he just sat down.
I was thinking he was thinking that CO was calling with anything so a bluff was impossible and he was trying to protect his small flush.
Moral is I guess to realize not only did I not have a read, but he didnt either. Seems obvious enough.
Feel free to rate my stupidity with your feedback.
