Maybe he would have made the overcall, but I really doubt it. Notice the limp-call PF...No way he had any hand that didn't miss this flop. If I flat called a $5 bet on the flop, he'd have to assume one of us at least had something. Also, I think a flat call would have set alarm bells off for the original better, where a raise *just* over the minimum looks like a steal attempt (I hoped it would, anyway, and it seems to have).
