Call getting 3:1. You only have to catch a bluff 25% of the time to show profit (a little more due to rake considerations).

I probably call because his line looks like 44-88 enough of the time (we have to be good 25% or 1 in 4 times). You need to bet more on the flop though, like 2.00-2.10ish, and you should be betting this turn for value (like 2/3 pot or just a little bit more).

You really gotta work on your posting abilities, converting a hand and saying CALL FOLD WHY doesn't generate discussion and it doesn't help anyone that will respond to you. If you included a few things about how he played, even if it's just that he's limping too much, it helps so much in giving good advice.

As a default though, I call. Look how weak you played this hand.. he's gonna be betting a LOT of hands after you check to him twice, many of those hands you beat.

my bad THAC. i forgot to eat breakfast. which made me forgot this: NO READ ON VILLAIN.

I bet half the pot generally here on flop with no draws out. wondering why i would bloat the pot/induce fold here with bigger bet?

[Cueballmania]

I like the flop bet.

[thac]

I just think an unknown will call a bigger bet with lesser hands.. we're trying to get value here.

[NeverScurred]

I like the flop bet too. This is an incredibly dry board, so there's no reason to bet a lot. Sure, you're betting for value in this particular spot, but a lot of your range here is bluffs and you don't want to get into a habit of betting more when you have it and less when you don't. I size my c-bets based on board texture, and this is one is really dry, so a small bet will do.

What percentage of players do you think will notice this? It's not very many from what I've seen.
