Default Re: Marginal Call With Junk after CR All In 10+1

[ QUOTE ]
I realize if I intend on calling with junk I should either push or fold but besides thatproblem..

But, you want to know about pot odds to call the all-in. There is 310+150+335=795 in the pot and you have to call 185. 795:185 is about 4.25:1. PokerStove says you're 25.7% to beat A8o => you're about 3:1 to win the hand against A8o. You're getting the odds to call the all-in.

Even against AQo, you're 24.7% to win. If SB has AJ or KQ, you're a serious underdog (relative to pot odds), likewise if he has a set or if his Ax is two clubs. I guess you just have to decide what he might have.

Think of it this way: if you call the all-in, no one is going to tell you that was your worst play during the hand.
