After review, it seems as though I should have fired a 2nd barrel on the turn and then folded to any further aggression.

As played I think the right play is to fold to the river bet since all I can beat is a bluff. However, the tiny bet, the busted flush draw, the check on the turn, and the crappy villain makes me want to call. </font>

I like your play on this hand. Checking the turn is a good move as it keeps the pot under control. I don't hate giving a free card here too much. Busted flushdraws, 4x and pp's will all bet this river some of the time and getting those odds I think you have to call.

I agree with your review. You have a $10 bet in front of you and no information as to whether you are good or not.

I don't do this often, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say villain has 88.

That's what I was thinking 55/77/88/99 often enough to make this a call
