Button is TAG.

I'm seeing the showdown here with only one big card on the board.

Call river.

call river, this will be some random semibluff, A7, worse 8, AK, etc. enough of time.

Yea I looked more closely at the situation and calling down is definitely correct. Thanks guys. I really need to be getting these middle pairs to showdown more.
