<font color="green">I showed the results because I don't really care. The question is more about this type of situation. How much of a favourite do you think you'd have to be to call in this situation? If I knew he was on that flush draw I was a 62/38 favourite. I would think that should warrant a call but I'm not sure. If I win I have over 3,000 but if I lose I have about 1,000. I think the difference between 1,000 and 2,000 is alot bigger than the difference between 2,000 and 3,000. Do you agree? Is it worth the risk? </font>
