What the problem? 5th is close, but in an $11 you can’t fold I think. (It’s really very close though - this is the classic “way behind or a little behind scenario”. Folding is okay too.)

You don't think sixth is a fold? I called because I was getting the pot odds to fill up, but I didn't consider the possibility of running into quads.

If the only mistake you are making is neglecting the possibility of quads, I think you're playing mighty fine poker [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

You're going to be up against smaller full houses more often than quads. I think the river action will pay for this call.

6th is fine. With the pot that large compared to the bet AND the guarentee of more action, 6th is a call for sure.
I'm not crazy about continuing on 5th, but it's close.

I'm folding on 4th here. I can't imagine him betting here without either a 7 in the hole, aces up, or a flush draw, all of which you are in serious trouble against. But I play pretty tight...
