    weird spot. Limping range of an unknown at 10nl is huge. You need to be ahead >1/3 of the time for calling to be +EV, I guess that it's close enough here that calling is ok (my instinct is to fold without at least some read though)

    stealing blinds from UTG
    tough spot imo...i would have to fold to the river bet thinking he has Ac5c, K7s or a set.
    did he have one of those?

    becuase there was no raise preflop, I prefer to check the turn and keep the pot small. My thinking is that our hand is weak really and becuase there was no raise they could have nearly anything with 2pair and sets reasonably high on their list of possible holdings. I don't see any hands we beat apart from bluffs that want to play for a big pot. If you know nothing about this person I'm folding that river the majority of the time as bluffing doesnt seem to make sense in this spot to me.
