SB checks, Hero ???
The thought for just calling the flop bet was to encourage a call from MP2 (since he was still getting wrong odds at a flush hunt). Bet about as much as I thought the small blind could call on the turn. For the river, should I bet? I'm almost positive that I'm in the lead, but I don't think that any bet is called unless I'm beaten. Do you think he can call a value bet? What amount?

UTG calls $0.1 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was $0.15)</font>, UTG+1 calls $0.1 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was $0.25)</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $0.5</font>,

The limp/AI from CO and BB just calling my raise makes me think that I'm safe from AA or KK. Is the push too much aggression? If I shouldn't push, what's the correct play? If BB calls, do I still have a shot or am I screwed?
Thanks for your comments.
