Re: Feeding my inner calling station....
Preflop....meh. Been discussed a million times, you know what you're doing.
And yeah, once SB folds and you call the turn bet, you're pretty much committed to showdown unless an ace comes.
One thing, though...I know you don't have a read on UTG+1 & don't know if he's really paying attention, but I think the preflop limp + donk on the paired flop pretty much gives away your hand to an observant opponent. I've been messing around a bit with check/calling the flop and donking the turn in situations like this, with fairly good results. Keeps the pot smaller and saves you a SB if that ace hits on the turn, and makes it a bit more difficult for your opponent to define your hand.
