Yeah, I am pretty much always letting this go. This early, no set = no bet for me.

Yes unless i have a ninja read that he will fold if I re-raise. No set no bet.

U do not have much showdown equity here as a lot of turn &amp; river cards are going to be overs.
Even if u call and the turn checks through you more likely will be facing a bet on the river.
You are not getting odds to hit a 5.
When villian raised PF with an overpair you will be bet into on the turn again.

OT. We did not cover ourselves in glory either on Sunday Evening 32-17 WTF.

I can see peeling a card here. It's pretty unlikely he hit and we have a gutshot.

You want to call this for set value since there's a good chance of stacking your opponent.

I muck preflop. If there's a caller in between or I'm in later posion I'm more likely to call.
