Call or Fold with a draw?

<< < (2/3) > >>

JamieCarra:
Fold pre, Call now

Swinebag:
well its a deffo fold pre given stack sizes but as you are gambling why not have a punt.

You then flop the earth so folding must be out of the question given your preflop actions

AMRN:
I called. Of course I called, although I did eat a bit of timebank in the process. Reason for posting was the slating I got in the chatbox for making the call - made we doubt my logic a bit.

I figured him for an overpair, and unless it was 99, I had 13 outs, so around 50% to hit... and the pot odds were around 40%. I think if this had been the Sunday Million I would probably have made a nitty fold to preserve chips...... however considering the logic of the argument in defence of the call, folding in any tournament (so far away from the bubble) would be a bad fold.

I think that seeing an open-shove that was approx twice the size of the pot made my draw look really poor - however the maths were favourable. I don"t think the rest of the table saw it that way though.

Exit soon after when aipf for 20x with 77 v TT

George2Loose:
This is why nits win all the money.

Tis a fold pre but in realtime doubt I make it

Santino67:
Generally concur with most of the above. Given that you"ve joined in with the action and flopped about as good as it gets, you really can"t fold in this position with 13 outs and additional back door possibilities. Dangerous hand to go along with in the first place, but we all know the benefits of suited connectors when you hit with them.

Would you play it any differently next time Steve????
