easy call, unless you're into min-cashing.

Even min-cash isn't guaranteed, you'll be down to T230 after posting the SB next hand.
Then you hope seat 3 doesn't get a hand?

easy call.

cardsfan04 · February 27th, 2008, 09:53 PM

snap call, folding here would be terrible

while you could potential outlast seat #2 before you'd go busto, it depends on whether your go is any prize or to win...

Tha_Fat_Cat · February 27th, 2008, 10:13 PM

thanks for the info, I thought I made the right call but wasn't 100% sure.

Tobinski · February 27th, 2008, 10:48 PM

if I were you I would push well before you were in the BB and also well before the blinds were 300/600.

when there are 10-14 people left I like to gamble with any face cards are just push into stacks that can't call without good hands. You need about 10k to have a chance at winning.

dont be afraid to push it in to steal/gamble

NateTrib · February 27th, 2008, 10:55 PM

yep very easy call

Checkmate36 · February 28th, 2008, 02:18 AM

Easy call.

Checkmate36 · February 28th, 2008, 02:25 AM

If I counted this right, pot is T2500 and hero needs to call T580.

Getting over 4:1 and holding a King is what makes this a super easy call. This call should be made with any 2 cards, even 72o.
