By my math, there's 1700 in the pot, and it costs 1100 to call. That's about 3:2, so you need a 40% chance to win to call. Discounting the slim possibility of a royal flush, I see seven outs at worst and 16 at best (9 hearts, two aces, five for two pair). That's not enoguh to call, but that's assuming you're behind. You could definitely be ahead of something like AQ/KQ/QJ with one heart, the chances of which are easily the 20% or so you need to make the call. I keep trying to justify folding here, but unless I know this guy is tight, I'm calling, but not all that happy about it.
