$0.10 BB (5 handed)
UTG ($12.15)
MP ($15.90)
Hero ($23.80)
SB ($1.40)
BB ($12.05)
Preflop: Hero is Button with J/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls $0.10, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $0.5</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP calls $0.40.
Flop: ($1.15) 8/images/graemlins/spade.gif, J/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 4/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
MP checks, Hero bets $0.90, MP raises to $3, Hero ?
I had raised him when he limped and continuation bet when called / beaten him out of a lot of pots, so I really felt he was playing back at me/not very strong here. My question is should I raise or call (based on my read, folding is absolutely not an option)? A draw is obviously likely on this board but again, read was that he could have air too. Do you like raising or calling here? Do I have to go broke no matter what hits on the turn if I decide to call (I assume so, what if it's the worst possible card which I guess would be the Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif)?
