Default Re: when is calling an all-in w/ 53o correct? (50+5)

First of all, you have to take into account that you're not always as good as a 1.76:1 dog.

The real problem with calling here is that you're risking 25% of your stack at a point in the game where every little bit helps. Calling when the odds are in your favor is +EV, but not when the chips you're risking represent such a large percentage of your stack.
