.50/$1, I'm BB with 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Villain is SB with a $32 stack.

LP limps, SB complets, I check.

Flop: 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
SB checks, I bet $3.50. LP folds, SB calls. Pot=$10.

Turn: 6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. SB checks, I bet $5, SB calls. Pot=$20.

River: 8. SB pushes for $22. I...

well if he has a 9>30% or so you need to fold, otherwise its a call

you are protecting 8.5bb by calling 22bb

its prob a fold

You hit bingo on the turn, bet more.

Fold river.

Pretty automatic fold. It's a split pot you are protecting here if you choose to call.

I definitely would have bet more on the turn -- at least $8.

I take it the 8 is not a diamond?

This is a tough fold on the river. How good is SB? Would he know that you probably don't have a 9 and he can rep one? Probably not. You are most likely beaten. Fold.
