Default Re: A situation I hate

This truly sucks. You almost have to fold as it isn't worth risking basically all of your chips. If you lose this hand you certainly will be dead, if you win it, your odds of cashing don't increase all that much. Unfortunately, I think this is a situation where risk / reward outweighs the "I don't want to be bluffed" scenario. Even if you call with the best hand, he may have a number of ways to beat you given the draw heavy board. A read obviously would help, but given these things are so fast and loose usually, its difficult to get a read on anyone usually. Incidentally, I probably raise more than 75 preflop. I generally will raise three to four times the big blind when I'm bringing it in for a raise. Not saying that it mattered, just food for thought I guess.
