    Either fold or min-raise that preflop. Limp was bad. If he raised your min-raise, fold. Otherwise, flop check was fine. Turn bet was fine. Given MP3's stack size, stacking off on river isn't bad, either. Only reasonable hands that beat you in his range are TT or Ax of diamonds.

    Like a true pro. Raise/folding a small pair in a set mining environment such as low stakes FR game is alot worse than just open limping/calling a raise.

    True Wota, the initial limp is good but after that it was just down to him and the shortstack who put over 20% of his stack in, shouldn't he either fold or shove after it got back around to him? Calling leaves you unsure and hoping for a set, but only $7 as the max you can win.

    Limp is fine, probably optimal in full ring though I'm not sure as I never play it. After the shortstack isolates you, I'd just fold. Can't set mine vs a 20bb stack.
