Quite a boring hand.
However I run into these spots a lot. I often call down those tiny bets all the way to SD.
Here I folded OTR because those are usually not bluffs but thin value bets of weak hands with SD value like T9, A6, and so on.
Any thoughts on how to play this better (and how to not burn so much money in these spots)?
On the flop and turn I could never fold because of the pot odds.
Raising OTF (with 2pair/trips, BD flush and runner runner straight outs) is an option and that's about it, isn't it?
But I don't like raising the flop because that bloats the pot and I do have SD value, so I think it is better to try to get to the river cheap with the opportunity to improve.
