Flop ($40) 8c9cKc I lead for $35, BB folds, MP folds, LP raises to $90. He's been playing lag (a little too lag for full) and I think I'm ahead of his range here too often to fold,


it seems to me that is not really a great reason to call.

Well, I put call > raise > fold on the flop. If I raise, I'm just bloating the pot OOP w/ 200BB stacks on a scary board. If a lot of money goes in, I'm either beat badly or close to a coinflip. Folding is ok as I am out of position, but I thought I could make calling a +EV move. Haven't thought about the math behind it though. Just was pretty sure he'd fold turn if didn't hit. I probably should have bet a little more than $150 though - as he could have misinterpreted me as being on a draw.
