So I made a decent sized bet at the pot with my flush draw, it was a bit of an underbet but if he missed he would have to fold. He re-raises me all in, this puts me in an interesting position.

Ok I was 99 % sure that if I hit my ace or king that would be good to beat him, after watching this player push on TP before. A T also give me a straight and a heart gave me a flush. The way I see it, then I had 18 outs (since the ten of hearts counts only as one). 47/18 = approx 2.6. So I am getting 2.6 to 1 odds if I am calculating this correctly? The pot size was 2315 and I had to put in 900 to call his all-in giving me approx 2.6 to 1 odds. Thus this necessitates a call here, correct? Any input is helpful.

Heres my play on this, it looks like he was trying to take the pot down right there with his pair. I would bet out just to see if he called or re-raised me. Your out of position on this hand.. If I got re-raised in this position then it looks like a fold. You got two cards to go and haven't paired anything up.. Looks like a gamble and counting on lady luck. Personally I would fold an all in raise with nothing but a draw. Count the pot odds all day but the CO came over the top and pushed...

You got 18 outs twice so you're actually a favorite over his hand on this flop. Hell you're still a favorite over AQ.

Easy call.

Edit - and add him to your buddy list for calling $150 PF with QTo.

If it's a solid player you have to discount a few of those outs. If he has AQ/KT you won't be helped by any ace etc.

That said, this is a call.
