Default Re: $55 Facing an overbet on the river

What kind of information can you gain by just calling? I really don't think villian would fire T20 into a T200 pot on the flop and then just give up on the hand once you call. If you raise, and he reraises, you can fold. If he calls, you can check the turn and check or call the river if the board looks ok. There's T200 in the middle (I don't really consider this that small of a pot, it's about 1/6 of your stack), there's a good chance you have the best hand, I think this flop is worth taking a shot at. I really think a flat call on the flop is a mistake, you're giving him correct odds to draw if he has overcards and it makes the rest of the hand much harder to play. The way it played out, with him firing small on the flop and turn and suddenly jamming on the river, I think it's more often than not a big hand that wants to get paid off. I hope this makes some sense, I'm a little out of it right now [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img].
