Something I think I learned from WPT

[Gomez22]

UB $.50 BB NLHE - 10 handed

UTG+1($1.10)
CO(Poster - $30.00)
BB(ME - $59.85)

I'm BB with 9 /images/graemlins/club.gif 7 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif

UTG folds, UTG+1 pushes all-in($1.10), CO (poster) folds, folded to me.... I call.

FLOP($2.95): J /images/graemlins/heart.gif 8 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif 2 /images/graemlins/club.gif

TURN($2.95): 9 /images/graemlins/spade.gif

RIVER($2.95): 4 /images/graemlins/heart.gif

UTG+1 showed A /images/graemlins/heart.gif 8 /images/graemlins/heart.gif


I always heard them talk about HAVING to call on WPT because of the pot odds. I figured I was getting 4-1 on my PF call, with no risk of losing anymore, so I called. Is this pretty much standard practice in a situation like this?

Please, try not to learn anything from the World Poker Tour.

Anyway, you might as well call this guy since you're in the big blind and everyone else has folded.
