table was playing loose enough for me to limp this pf, imo
I thought long about calling river.
I think the fact he bet after a turn c/r, at this level, probably means I'm beat - but 8/9 times?

I think both c/r the flop and just c/c down are both better than the way you played it.

Why?
This is a rare line for me, but I think it has use in hands that miss opponents, and we pick up some outs as well.
River play?

I don't really know what to say to this hand.
My only feeling is "meh".

I think that folding is fine. Then again, I don't think calling is that bad either. But I lean toward folding.
I do, however, think that a c/r on the flop might be better. I understand what you are saying about getting opponents that don't improve to fold, but then it puts you in a bad spot on the river when you don't improve. Which, is most of the time. If it goes 4-bets on the flop you could lead the turn and fold to a raise, or call if you pick up an oesd.
Just curious, do you c/r any turn?
*shrug* I don't know, it seems like things are waaay different online at these limits that in live cash games. Some of my opinions may be off, and there is a very good possibility that I have no idea what I'm talking about.

The fold equity in a small pot is decent vs decent players on the turn.
I usually c/r the flop; but as with my stronger hands, I like to mix in a turn c.r sometimes
I'm just not sure if I have to call that river. Pot looked small enough to trust his value bet. Who knows
In any event, I should remember that I folded and ....
Given this hand, I did call soo afterwards, (the A3 hand) after he bet again. Maybe, it *paid off* to fold here
