Default Home game all-in

The game is 8 players, cash, NL, .05/.10 blinds, $5 buy-in. There is a good bit of limping in. There is a good bit of raising too, but when it happens, it's often about 3xBB and most of the limpers will call the raise.

MP1 limps, I limp in MP3 with 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], cutoff and button limp, BB checks, 5 players and .55.

Cutoff is tight, conservative and predictable. BB is not very good technically but is loose, very tricky, makes some pretty good bluffs, is creative and reads others fairly well. One weakness is he will sometimes call too much on a draw, or even a weak made hand if he thinks you're semi-bluffing. The cutoff will not usually do this.

Flop is 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] . BB makes a pot size bet and the next player folds. What do you do?

I decide to go all-in (assume we all have about $5). The cutoff calls. The BB hems and haws and finally calls. Cutoff has A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] - unusual for him to call all-in here, which just goes to show you can never know what someone will do 100% of the time. BB shows 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I win the pot when 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] comes on the turn and 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] comes on the river just for kicks. But anyway, was wondering what you thought of the play.
