Folding is baaadddd, and raising is -EV. So easy call I think. If the board paires you can push easily. If the board don't pairs, call the river if it isn't too big.

Folding isnt an option on this turn. SO many cards improve you including a diamond.

Sorry, forgot I posted this. Here's what happens next:


Turn: ($5.25) 4 (2 Players)
<font color="red">SB bets $3.50</font>, Hero calls $3.50

River: ($12.25) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">SB bets $5.50</font>, Hero...

Now, obviously a pot on the river is a fold, but yet again he's showing aggression here. I suppose this is an easy call with the small bet.

Rivers too small to fold with top set. Call and make a note if he donked the flush draw.

Usually, at these limits, when a villian donks a turn card etc. it usually means "this card helped me in some way". Therefore, I think raising is bad, cuz if we get 3bet, we're sucking hind tit and OBV folding is bad, so calling is your best option in position.

As much as it sucks folding the river, unless the board pairs or another diamond hits, I think you have to fold to a reasonable bet. Sucks, but otherwise, more often than not, that's a train to valuetown and that ride is teh suck.
