    hero reraises with second nuts because this is low limit and UTG might just have jacks, or might just have two pair.

    or...hero calls.

    Folding is not an option here.

    looks good to me. There's no reason to chase out other hands at this point, unless you're that worried about someone hitting a FH.

    Of course, you can make the argument that the only time that you're going to get paid is when someone has two pair or has K9, in which case they're going to put their money in on the flop.

    Actually, the more I think about it, I think you should raise that flop if you think your opponent has two broadway cards.

    Bah thats not second nuts :P But anyway looks like villain is holding a K and caught the bitch end of the strait. I pay off a boat here, most boats at low limit are re-raising the turn.
