Seven chips left?!? Why? Stop or buy more chips. But why are you allowing yourself to get all-in?

Anyhow, I don't like a fold here. The flop c/r could mean any number of things. Maybe he had a pair and an OESD, in which case he now has two pair so you have eight outs on the river. Maybe he thinks you're pushing too hard with AK because you're practically all-in.

At any rate, for seven chips and a free river, I call. No problem.

I know that I shouldn't be playing that short, but...I was. Oh well. In any case, my stack is significant in that I get to see the river for free, but should it matter that "I only have seven chips left?" I understand the argument that it should, but isn't that pretty much based on emotion and not solid play?

BTW, this is an easy call for me if it's heads up. I'm actually a lot more worried about the player behind me, who may have very well flopped the straight.
