    I probably call -- but I suck and I think a fold is correct. Even if you hit, you wont know so its gonna be tough to get any value out of him. And you could be drawing dead.

    I call because I can never lay down a straight flush draw. His small bets could either be value bets or trips that are a little afraid. So as for not knowing where you are if you hit, I think his bet size will let you know on the river.

    I would call and check/fold river if my hand doesn't improve. The draw is just too good

    No. I just think we have to fold here. Even if we hit a hand (other than the 1 out to the SF) we wont know if we're good.

    We'll lose the most when behind and win the least when ahead.
