Default Re: Do you call an all-in for nearly half your stack on a draw?

You can't call in this spot. I'm curious to know what the more experienced posters think of the bet of 60. I can kinda understand it as a confusion tactic, but don't think it was a good idea on balance.

I don't think it was a good idea either. It's too small a bet into too many people who haven't acted yet to reliably fold people out, and with this many people in the pot I think people are generally going to think a flush draw is out there if you happen to hit, so I'm not anxious to build a big pot here that's unlikely to grow much when I'm actually good. Check and call if you're getting close to correct immediate odds, otherwise I think you can fold this quite happily.
