    I didn't think he would limp a pair into my blind... I wasn't wure what I really could put him on that would take this line here that we beat.

    The fact that their are alot of satty players that haven't been weeded out yet weighed heavily on my decision.

    Bad call or cooler?

    I just want to say straight up that I have a problem making these kinds of folds..

    However, you have 100+ BB's and one pair.

    Tough hand..

    Always a difficult decision but with just the small blind in the pot and two pair being unlikely I would put him on top pair and happily throw my chips in only to see my smile disappear when the cards are turned over.

    Despite the saying "never get all your chips in with 1 pair when you have chips to play with" I do no see a lot of players throwing your hand away here without a solid read on the villain.
