Default Re: 20/40 hand. I don\'t know about this one.

I think it is bad to call with a small pocket pair in the small blind with a raise and one caller as well, for what it is worth.

Assuming the BB calls, you're putting in 1.5 small bets at a chance (after rake) of pulling in 6.5 small bets. Assuming you need 8:1 odds to win (flopped sets don't always take it), you don't think you make up three big bets postflop if you hit? I admit it's close, and if the BB 3-bets your odds go out the window. But it looks like the odds are there.

And yeah, yeah, super-dry board, I probably should have bet. Problem with 20/40 is it seems my UI aces are gettin' played back at a ton.

PS Next month, rory!
