Hero calls or repots? I just don't really see folding an option here.

The table has been a limp fest preflop lately which is why I'm calling. I'm normally folding this pre in an early positon. If I fold the flop I still have above average stack.

fold it. protect chips and don't race a good draw at worst. no reason to get stubborn here.

i wanted to respond to this when it was first posted but i wasn't sure if i was right. i agree with poker_inc. you're either racing here or getting it in very bad against a set. just fold.

Would flatting this bet be the worst option?

It's what I would do personally. Our hand is too strong and does have some backdoor redraws if we need them... I flat and shove any brick turn (bricks being any 2-7). If we fill up I c/RAI.

This makes no sense. Hero is either slightly ahead of a good draw or way behind a set. Even if the turn is a low card Hero may be shoving into a set.

the idea is that you've decided to take it to the felt and it increases your edge when he has a good draw. that said i dont think i like it in this spot.
