i like it

[dibbs]

He almost positively caught up but it's a call regardless.

You're getting over 9:1. If you never folded here, you wouldn't be making much of a mistake.

In fact, I'd only consider folding against the most predictable opponents. Even against a predictable opponent, I'd rarely fold. Folding for one more bet in a large pot is a horrible habit to have. Formerly predictable opponents will start taking shots at you and you'll have to call a lot more later.
