Default Re: Am I missing something???

"I would only call with a premium hand: AA-TT + AK, AQs, AJs, KQs-JTs. Otherwise, to me at least, I don't think it's worth taking the risk for a 450 pot."

I'm not even sure I would call with that many hands against a stack nearly as big as mine unless he was going all-in every 4 or 5 hands. For a stack that big, I'd probably stick to QQ-AA. If he was routinely going in, then fine. I always try to avoid 50/50 propositions (i.e. overcards vs. pocket pair) against stacks close to or larger than mine, especially when I will be calling a raise (rather than raising all-in myself).
