SB bets $0.48 and is all-in, Hero ?
PF: Standard blind-steal, got to call when SB min-bets.
F: Should aim to keep it simple and raise. If villain has middle pair then I probably won't get any more value from him so by raising I take the pot down when I actually have the best hand and also maybe get some weaker aces to fold which whom I will likely split the pot with if we go to a showdown. If Villain calls then I have a pretty easy check/fold unless I spike a 2.
As played:
T: Villain's weak bet makes me think he has an pair but with a diamond so I call hoping to complete my flush and gain value from a weaker flush on the river.
R: Villain bets big, should read into this as Hero is strong (possibly 77?) or is it a bluff attempt trying to make me fold my exact hand?
