Default Re: Do you call an all-in for nearly half your stack on a draw?

I'm more interested in the SB raising all in for 1180 in a t390 pot. Especially given that this hand occurs early in the tournament, that just seems stupid; even if he's got a set, just raising to t400 makes it incorrect for pretty much anyone to call. The size of the raise just screams "please don't call", and coming after he checked the flop in an unraised pot?? I'd be more apt to put him on a pure bluff or another draw than a stronger hand than ace high.

But of course you can't call off half your chips at this stage in the tournament on a flush draw, anyway. If he's bluffing more power to him--he just conned you out of t90, and all he had to do was risk his entire stack.
