Default Re: Call or not from the BB?

It is probably close but not enough hand to call. You also have to be somewhat worried about a backraise so that is another minus.

The probability that you will flop 3 specific cards of different ranks (with none of your rank) is 4*4*4*6/50*49*48 = .0033

Favorible flops:

432 = .0033
643 = .0033
764 = .0033
876 (straight) = .0033
T87 = .0033
JT8 = .0033
2-pair (or a house) = .022
Trips = .015

Total = 5.7% = 16.5:1 against hitting a $$ making flop

You are only getting 13:1 so it is a fold as painful as it may be. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
