Re: NL calldown

Maybe this is where the saying, "If you can't raise don't call" comes from.

The odds for a call down at deep NL are bad. You have to be almost favourite. However, in this example even that isn't good enough. It's the opponent's ability to adjust to your hand on the turn that beats you. It's the gap concept but compounded over several streets.
Incidently, although I'd used the gap concept myself, until a few days ago I hadn't heard the name or seen it writen down anywhere. Where does the term come from?
