xx suited sb

CT11 · #1 10-28-2005, 03:32 AM

hero is in small blind with xx suited. three players call. hero calls. loose BB raises and every one calls.

What should hero do now? call with about 8:1 or fold?

call all.

you're getting the same odds to call now as you did to call before the BB raise

I just don't think that's true.

Sure it is. But we still gotta call.

One of the fundamental rules of micro-limit poker (I think it's known as "B") is that if you call preflop and it gets raised behind you you should call again as long as it's only one back to you. This is especially true if you're closing the action.

Of course it is, unless you expect everyone to put in twice as many bets postflop when you make your hand.
