J8 suited from BB
 

This hand came up during a session where vote4pedro was sweating me. As we all know, "he likes to watch". We were discussing if this was a call, fold or raise situation. SB just sat down with 32K, this is his second hand at the table.

Thoughts?

I fold this as well. The board is paired, and has two clubs. The action can get ugly behind you, and it can get expensive for you to draw to the straight. You also only have 3 real clean outs, and those may end up not being enough to win the hand.

4 very tainted outs to a gutshot, 1 of which puts 3 to a flush on the board and the rest could very easily finish someone's boat. I dunno, too many people to act, we gotta fold.

against a donator, all of our outs could be clean

i can't imagine your game is bad enough that pedro can actually improve it.
