It's the next day and he hasn't got going yet. I think I folded him out of one hand coming over the top of a continuation bet. I've watched him play across 2 or 3 sessions now and his post flop play is much more calculated than it looks. He's got balls of steel and will bluff for large amounts at the drop of a hat but he isn't mindlessly betting and raising and he can get away from a hand when he wants to. Or so I thought...

I have awful position here with 4 of us in the pot on the flop I decide not to bet. A bluff here is just too likely to get raised, or at least called by straight or flush draws.
On the turn, the 5h hasn't helped anyone to a hand that scares me significantly, my position is still crap and I have a sneaky suspicion that the guy in Seat 5 will bet out light if shown weakness. He does and by the time it gets back to me I am willing to gamble that the guy in Seat 4 has nothing and the guy in Seat 5 has nothing much. I expect the raise to fold him and am surprised when he wants to play.
I think I'm in decent enough shape to make this play here. Anyone else?
