$0.25/0.50 NL 10-seat.

The Button both seems to be a good player. I only have about 30 hands at the table, and has played solidly thus far. You can only sit with $50 at the table, so he is way up on his sessions.

Stack sizes:
Hero: $47.50
Button: $121.10

I probably have a loose aggressive table image so far. My cards have been running well, so I have seen the flop about 14 or 15 times so far in 3 orbits. I started with $25, so I am also up, but I have only had to show down once.


Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is UTG+1 with
UTG folds, Hero calls, 3 folds, CO calls, Button raises to $5, 2 folds, Hero calls, CO folds.

Flop: ($12.5, 2 players)
Hero bets $7, Button raises to $15, Hero calls (what do you think of just calling here?)


Turn: ($***, 2 players)
Hero

And how about here? Shove?

So many possibilities for the button on the flop; possible strait, flush draw or trip 8's.

With the turn, that could be dangerous too. I had mentioned before that if you have a pair, it is possible that at least one other player could have a pair also. Question is, which pair could the button have, the 5's or the 8's?

If it were myself playing in hero's possition, I would check call or fold. I have been beat several times with similar hands, being in the lower-hand possition.
