Do you have the right odds to call this?

Do I have the odds to call here?

I am getting 2.25 to 1 to call. The raiser BigEFries was a super tight player, but his stack has gotten so low that he had to make a move soon. He was UTG with only 3 times the BB.

If he had QQ, KK, AA, I was 4-1 -EV
2 over cards 2-1 even EV
1 overcard 1 undercard +EV
1 overcard 1 in between card +EV
77,88,99,10 10 fairly even EV
under pair +EV


It turns out I was getting slightly negative EV. Considering the range of hands, do you call?

no, mathematically i dont call this here. assuming he has something decent here, you may be looking at AA AK AQ AJ KK QQ JJ KQ KJ which are clearly dominating you. He may have TT-66 in which your odds are still incorrect. You need for him to have a hand like A2 and then your call is good. There are far more hands that you are not getting correct odds to call this here if your odds are 2.25:1.

however, if a call is this close i may make it sometimes to show that i am willing to protect my bb so that players wont run me over.
