Re: $2/$5 NL Live hand
The good thing about this hand is that you are almost never way behind. The only hands that are killing you are JJ and 99 and I feel like the solid player would often raise those holdings on the button after one limper. If you are behind a straight, you have 13-15 outs to win (13 if he has spades, too). If you are behind a set, you have 13 (because there are no spades that can pair the board and fill your opponent and a boat for you will be bigger than any boat he makes provided he doesn't have JJ). On the other hand, you're way ahead of any draw (including combo draws) and totally crushing any other two pair. Raising the turn folds out almost everything you're beating but folding is out of the question so call.
