Default Re: How do I extract the maximum in this $2/$4 hand?

Sklansky is not going to call if he is nearly 100% sure he's beat. Would this opponent really 3-bet 10's on 5th against someone who has represented queens? If this guy WOULD do something like that sometimes, go ahead and call him (but in that case, why even post it...you have firsthand evidence of very erratic betting so other peoples' input is kinda unnecessary).

Against a typical opponent, I doubt I'm calling this. Again, if you judge that you are winning here the percentage of the time required, call. But calling just cause "the pot's big, the pot's big" when you're nearly 100% sure you're beat is foolish (unless you are getting about 100-1 odds). Against someone who is not extremely overaggressive, I don't see you winning this 8 percent of the time. Just my take, I've certainly made worse calls.

Jeff
