Re: Preflop call.
Instead of giving an answer to this particular situation, think about the general problem of calling big raises preflop with your less-than-premium hands.
Even though you are getting 4:1 on your money, do you think you are at least 20% to win? If not, do you think you have the proper implied odds? What sort of flop are you looking to hit? Is it worth calling for 20% of your stack to see the flop?
For this particular situation, I think your odds of flopping top set or nut str8 or premium draw are pretty low. I would fold here.
