Default Re: i\'m at the final table for pp\'s wsop satalite

normally i don't call there. but i had 66,000 chips. there was already 21,000 in the pot and my 3,000 closed the action. i was getting 8-1 with no chance of being raised so i thought it was worth the call in that spot with that many chips.

the last person's reply about calling the raise in the first place has really got me rethinking things. anyone else feel this was a bad call in that situation.

This may be true, but your use of the present tense was inferior to my use of the past tense.

MP1 (t38238)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 2, T.
2 folds, MP1 calls t3000, 2 folds, CO raises to t6000, 1 fold, SB calls t4500, Hero calls t3000, MP1 calls t3000

i was getting 8-1 with no chance of being raised .

good catch. there was one person behind me that could have reraised. i still think i had enough chips to put 3,000 more into a 21,000 chip pot with one person acting behind me. for those who think it was a bad call, i'm interested in hearing your point of view.

The pre-flop call is fine. Bad luck.

the reason i wouldn't call with T2s is that even if i (very rarely) hit a mediocre flush flop i would never be confident that it would be or remain the winning hand, with two cards still to come

hitting the four-flush (for which you did have pot odds) would probably be even worse; as would TTx because of the 2 kicker

i'd probably sometimes call in a cash game depending on extraneous circumstances

like being drunk
