    I don't think I'd call the turn even...you took a good crack at a missed flop and he liked it enough to call - you need to improve imo.

    His choice of betting amounts is odd, but it's not the bets that get me off the hand, it's the $2 call...I doubt he's chasing something on that flop.
    Up my bankroll - buy Saints Row.

    he has pot odds on the turn to hit a Q or A, so the turn call was fine. i fold the river though no matter what odds im getting.

    I folded as im only beating a bluff which is unlikely.

    I know im 6-1 or maybe 7-1 (can anyone clear this up?) to hit one of my overcards from turn to river, hence the turn call.

    Hitting a Q or A on the river is 6 outs divided by 46 unknown cards which is 6/46 which is 1/7.666 so about 6.667 to 1.
