5/10 NL @ The Wynn

[Allinlife]

I don't think the call is mandatory as people make it out to be. I mean you are getting 5.7:1 odds and if your read says you are beat, you can lay it down. I often see these laydowns in limit poker but very often I see people in no limit calling 3:1~5:1 bets where it is pretty obvious they are beat.

As for calling for sole purpose of keeping your image so you don't get bluffed out out of pots, I think you just gotta learn to use this very information against them, and keep in mind that your image is pretty weak when playing future hands.

Whether that means leaning towards calling than folding in a boarder line river bet, or inducing bluff with TPTK against obvious missed draw, you have an image, so have fun manipulating it.
