Completing the bb here Is pretty standard I generally don't rate raises like his for Early pos as strong... actually preflop particularly on the Button or Cutoff I would re-raise here perhaps 50% of the time depending on the player. Cons range here is quite wide however QJs seems about right... I am fairly sure he missed... with the weak bet I am 100%. Ali's check raise is interesting but mostly I figure he has seen the same as me and decides he wants the pot. Ali's call suprises me. the 7 does nothing and while the flush draw is out there with the pot this small I am not phased (I am a fan of check calling a tp like this and representing flush if it happens to hit on river). So it did Ali checking means he didn't have it so I followed through with my plan betting aprox 1/2 the pot... Ali calls and thats it... any thoughts? or different ideas on how to play a situation like this?

Re: .5c/.10c Cash Hand (10 handed) I know it's small stakes and that but personally I hate the call pre flop with a9 when out of position you hit that ace and he could have a better kicker just gets you in to much trouble playing weak aces out of position.
