call or raise here?

[konahead]

I never know if I should try to bring along another opp or not. Figured he might fold and wouldn't get more out of bettor if I didn't act now. Right play, or should I have slow-played it more?

should I have raise his flop bet, or called, hoping dubbs_44 would come along for the ride?

I don't think you are in danger of getting outdrawn this hand. Either way would be fine, since you'll most probably be paid off in both cases.

Just call the $5. It's obvious Derm likes his hand and is committed after making that bet, so now you want to start get other people into the pot as well. I really like weak-leading this flop, say for $2 or so.

Yeah - I put Derm on big slick or such, and was afraid that if he missed on the turn, he'd slow way down. but he was pretty committed... thanks

btw - love your avatar.
