couple sb hands

[timmay28]

Both hands are from the same $24+2, 1000ish entry FTP MTT.


I was torn between folding and calling here. CO plays poorly after the flop as he had lost a big pot with a low pair on a dangerous board. His raise is small in relation to the potsize, and if I call I'm sure the rest of them will come along and make it a huge pot.

No reads, new table. After thinking this over I'm pretty sure of the answer to this one, but could use reassurance.
