NL 100 turned set vs nit
 

Villain is 13/6/2 over decent sample. Preflop is horrible, yes I know. But I'd never seen him limp UTG, ever (and I've played a significant amount with him), so frankly I didn't know what to think. Regardless I realize I should have raised.

UTG: $127.55
MP: $35.50
CO: $76
BTN: $109.75
SB: $59.35
Hero (BB): $126.25

Pre-Flop: 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (BB)
UTG calls $1, 4 folds, Hero checks

Flop: ($2.50) 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, UTG checks

Turn: ($2.50) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)

Do I have to call and just feel really gross about it?

Umm, yes, I'd raise preflop [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

As played, I offer a small prayer to a random deity and call. Ok you may be beaten, but he could well have something like 98. He's probably putting you on TPGK or MPTK as you didnt raise preflop, so he may well think he's good to shove with 2 pair.

calling is setting money on fire

Yes insta call, he could have lower sets

Surely not JJ or 88? He'd have raised.... and I'd add 98s and A9s to the range.

First post here but looking at it isn't q10s a chance. Limping in for cheap checking gutshot and hit gin on turn. Again I can be wrong but curious to see results/input.
