Re: Probably simple, not sure...
I think in tournament play, if you put yourself as a coinflip, you can make this lay down.
In cash game, Without a doubt, no brainer call.. You'll never survive leaving money like this on the table.
But I prefer a survivalist style.. I don't like putting a deep stack at risk of elimination on a coinflip, even when the ChipEV is clearly in my advantage.
If the chip stacks are getting shallow, it becomes a much easier call in tournament play. Hero has 38 BB if he folds.. I make this fold. If Hero has 10-15 BB, I probably call.
To completely dismiss that a laydown is possible in tournament play (and that's what this forum is for, MTT's), I think that's a wrong assumption to make.
If you think you have a big edge over the rest of your table, I lay it down and find a better spot. That's just my survivalist style though.. Everybody is different. But it's not unreasonable at all.
