Pot is huge on the river compared to his bet - wtf?? Call? Can't be any value in a raise, can there? Fold a better hand out?

it's a really small bet, but all you can beat is the missed flush, and why he'd call the turn with a flush draw i'm not really sure...otherwise, you can beat nothing, i would fold and save my $2.50

SB's bet is a blocking bet. It's designed to slow you down so you only raise with a hand that beats him. The problem is, these guys call the raise as well. It annoys tha hell out of me. Why the hell would they not just c/c? They bet/call with hands that can't beat a raise.

Of course, I always have junk when I raise them (hey, it's an obvious bet/fold line - why not raise?), but it's still a moronic line for them to take unless they are thinking on a very high level. Which they aren't.

If you think he's a bad player just fold. If you think he has an ounce of intelligence then raise it up.

It is a 0.10 / 0.25 cent game, the chance of it is slim, i think he has a weak ace, or weak full house

He wasn't calling the turn without trip aces and people are never folding trip aces in this game. If you've developed a good read that he's a solid player that's not afraid to lay a hand down over >100 hands, then you can come over the top, but most of the time, your best move is just to give up.

I called, just cuz the pot was so big. He flopped middle pair and a straight draw...and I thought I made loose calls /
