Perverse hand

[Hamlet]

I'm with Andy on this one. The early play of this hand has kept the pot small enough that I don't want to invest 3 BBs to chase.

It worked this time, but the majority of the time you are going to end up on the river without improving.

I'm not crazy about the raise on fifth street. I doubt that one pair is currently winning. I also doubt that anyone is folding. It's somewhat surprising that the one guy called two cold and folded for one more bet when his call closed the action. Also, your hand is somewhat dead. I'd call and hope.

Definitely bet sixth and seventh. Nice hand.
