Default Re: Probably simple, not sure...

In a cash game, it's a very easy call.

10050 in the pot. You have 7650 more to call, at worst you are a coin flip here IMO.

If he has A-A or K-K with no heart, you are actually a slight favorite. If he had J-J, 10-10, 9-9 with no heart, even more slightly big of a favorite.

It's very possible he's making a move here with A-K, A-Q, A-J, A-10 of hearts, and your still a slight favorite.


In a tournament? Stacks are still deep.. It's your decision. If you think you are better than these guys at your table, you can fold and find a better spot.. If you think this might be the only opportunity to get alot of chips, go for it.

Personally.... I might fold this in a tournament.. I hate putting my entire stack and tourney life on a coinflip. Very easy ring game call though.

I prefer the Phil Hellmuth "Survivalist" methodology in tournaments. (Although not quite to the degree Phil takes it!)
