Call. Expect to lose often but not often enough to where calling isn't +EV.

I take it you called since it says pot 7.50 BB? [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I mean you feel like a jerk when he turns over the King and you were drawing to 6 outs (or less) the whole time, but making "good folds" just really isn't how you beat these turds at the low limits. The fact that he called me on the Flop and Turn does not lead me to believe he has a King or a 9. In fact, anything but. He probably would have raised a 9 on the Turn, and a King usually says something by now, but not always. The most likely candidates are a weak gutshot draw, middle pair (a Ten), or a 1-card Diamond draw. Maybe he got there on the end, maybe he didn't, maybe he had you beat all along, who knows. I'm paying the 1bb though.
