Default Re: Making the right play when u know u\'ll lose the hand?

[ QUOTE ]
yes this answers my question that if u are getting the right pot odds to call but at least 90% sure you'll lose do u still call?

Yup, because your long-term goal is to win as much money as possible, not as many pots as possible. So if a call will win you only 1 pot in 20, but you're getting 30-1, you would be a fool to turn it down.
