This hand really made me smile, thought I'd share it with you. On the flop I got the feeling that he had a strong hand, no idea from where.

Actually, it's like watching a complete donk hit his miricle. What were you thinking with the call on the flop? "I'm going to hit one of my eight outs?" I think he played badly, but so did you.

It's $.25. Flop call is perfectly fine.

Obviously Hero was thinking about the implied odds should he hit his hand, not the current pot odds.

[whittiphil]

wtf? Flop call is a totally easy call. Min bet means nothing, or a monster. If he hits his straight, he wins vs the monster, if he doesn't hit, he can raise pot size on the turn and potentially take the pot because the better doesn't have [censored]. If he gets reraised he just drops it. Flop call is to be commended.

I'd suggest learning about implied odds. It's where the money is at.
