A tough calling decision on the River.
10/20 Hold'em (8 handed) Preflop: Hero is UTG with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Hero raises, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 folds, CO folds, Button folds, SB calls, BB calls. Flop: (8 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(4 players)</font> SB bets, BB calls, Hero calls, MP1 raises (this was only a fractional raise of $2 as he went allin), SB calls, BB calls, Hero calls. Turn: (6.40 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(4 players)</font> SB checks, BB checks, Hero checks. River: (6.40 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(4 players)</font> SB bets, BB calls, Hero calls. Final Pot: 9.40 BB Results in white below: <font color="white"> SB shows Ts Td (one pair, tens). BB shows Tc 7h (one pair, sevens). Hero shows Jh Ah (one pair, jacks). MP1 shows 2c 7c (one pair, sevens). Outcome: Hero wins 9.40 BB. </font> This was a tough decision to make.. would you call too? The all in player bothered me a little bit, but given that he didn't have much money going into the hand made me feel a bit better. The call by the BB bothered me a bit, but he didn't raise with the possible flush, which makes me feel a bit more comfortable too. I think it was worth a call by a small margin.

Re: A tough calling decision on the River.
apologies for posting this hand in the shorthanded forum by accident. I almost always play shorthanded, and this table started out short, but then it filled up. but i'll just leave it as is.

Re: A tough calling decision on the River.
I think it's worth a call too. It's pretty certain that you've got the BB beat, and a shortstacked player will often push his chips in a spot like that with as little as bottom pair or Ace high. There are not a lot of plausible two pair hands here, and it's doubtful that either of them have a king. You're closing the action, the pot is reasonable, and I think it's worth an overcall.
