You would fold if he exposed the heart ten, wouldn't you?

Well I'll let Mr. Angelo deal with you, young man. [img]/forums/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Twodimes says you'll win 13.63% of the hands with 3h-2h against Tc-Td, As-5s, 7c-7h. (I gave one cold caller an A-xs hand and the other a mid/smallish pocket pair.)

I'm no Mr.Sklansky, but playing 3-high from the blind against an UTG raiser and two cold-callers when I know one opponent has pocket tens ain't for me.

Changing his cards to Tc-Th, that is, putting 2 hearts into your 3 opponents hands, changes your win % to 12.73%.

I would probably call because it'd be so much fun to hit the flop with the tens poised behind, with me knowing that he doesn't know that I know. Sweet. And stupid and hopeless.

And this would explain why I so often go out of my way to NOT look at my opponent's cards.

If you'll win 13.63%, then that is 6.37 to 1. The pot is offering you 7 to 1 to call. More likely the cold callers have big cards and you would love to see baby spades flop. You will be zigging when they are zagging if the flop hits you. I say call.

Default See Mike?

I told you I'd leave you to Mr. Angelo.

Stupid and hopeless. I'd hate to get an S & H-o-gram from Tommy, deserved though it might be sometimes.
