    Looks like it was a $50 pot at the flop and $15 for you to call. Iffy call, but not horrible. He probably should've raised more with his vulnerable hand.

    Yep, Iffy call on the flop, but you should have definetly bet the turn.

    $50 pot, $15 to call. 3:1 pretty much. Your odds=roughly 5:1ish. Eh, I don't like the call that much. I don't like the smallish preflop reraise that much either. If you were going to play back at him in that spot you should have raised at least 3x his initial raise. Also, I would've just smooth called the turn. You can be pretty sure you have the best hand there and might be able to extract more value on the river.

    As all the others have said, you made a bad call on the flop but then you hit your card on the turn and you just checked, i know that by betting you could have scared him of the hand, but a bet of 5 dollars, for example, smells of weakness and sometimes players will go over the top when you make a bet like that. You have to thank the poker gods because it all turned out ok because you nailed an ok pot on that hand.
