Re: Double gutter gets there, I think villain really has a hand
[ QUOTE ]
If I were in position, I might have raised the flop. OOP, however, I think it's just way too likely that I'd get 3-bet all-in.

Calling is a good play there, but I like check-raising the flop. Passive players love to slowplay with a set there, allowing you a good look at the river for free, and if they bet the turn it is usually to small for the pot size, allowing you to see a cheap river. I like keeping the pot small, and it was probably good since you didn't have a flush draw with your straight draw, but if you are against a known passive player that will slowplay his monster hands, then I like throwing in a play like that every now and then.
