I think I played this too slow... but I had the board absolutely crippled. I'd like to hear comments, even though this is a pretty rare case.

At this point I have the board crippled and I'm praying someone's got the case King or a spade draw. Anyway, no harm in smooth calling here, right?

I don't have the nuts anymore, but I don't have him on AA or AK, so I figure this might be a decent card for me. I was planning on check-raising, but the small bet leads me to believe he's on a draw, so I just call to give him a chance to catch.
