I like this unless you have shown any previous tendency to lead out with big hands instead of CRing them.

i dunno...that's an awfully fishy CO bet. he either has air, or a monster, don't you think?

That's my take on it.

this pot is so small i would not worry about trying to take it down. i would not even consider raising.

Calling is worse. I think raising is fine, but folding is best. Make sure you don't do either option 100% of the time.

that makes no sense at all. if the board wasn't so ugly, you wouldn't be attacking weakness here? if somebody bets weak, i assume they have a weak hand and want to give me their money. does it matter how much is in the pot now? save bets, not pots.

He does this often. I've seen both big hands and drawing hands from it.
