Default Is the fold to weak?

Sb is 29/5 over 80 hands

Withonly one overcard and the flush draw present it's a calldown. Many players raise the draw, second pair or a pocket pair here trying to fold your hand. Just call down.
You'll be ahead here enough to show a profit, it just sucks when you get shown a5.

Kinda weird question here. If we 3-bet, do we buy a river card often enough to save the .5BB?

i.e.
*FLOP* check, bet, raise, 3-bet, call.
*TURN* check, check
*RIVER* bet, call

Also has benefit of preventing a flush draw or weirdly played mid pocket from bluffing us out of the hand. If you want to mention meta-game, it's not bad either. You may get a lot of action on future hands when you do have it.

Not saying this is something I do or recommend, but just wondering what others think about it?

If you're running good, you'll get shown clubs or an 8.

If you're running bad, you'll get shown ace-deuce.

So always run good.
