My own very mechanical rules of thumb are such that, unlike Andy, I would probably fold on third street for one reason: both an ace and a ten are active in the hand. I don't like playing small pairs when players start with bricks.

That said, the third-street action-closing call for the bring-in is very likely not a mistake.

I like the fourth street bet as much because of what my hand looks like as what I actually have. It's reasonable to bet the best low draw here. Both the ace and ten checked, so my pair might be good. I'd be more likely to bet here against good players than against duffers.

Fifth street, I hate the idea of raising here, and I am terrified of a rase from the 843 and a reraise from the A8A. I have a backdoor draw to a rough seven, and my two pair might be drawing extremely thin. By the way, did you notice that it isn't just a paired ace but a paired door card?.

I think this is a place to fold.
