Seat 7: takemycash9 [5S,10S] ($8,568 in chips) In the CO... the 2 blinds are playing tight trying to hang on there's only about 35ppl or so left...

PRE-FLOP Blinds 200/400
folds to me,,,, takemycash9 bets $1,200, SB bets $2,232 and is all-in, takemycash9 calls $1,232.

figured I was getting the odds to call about 3.8 to 1.2 , good call or not?

Seems to me like your getting 4/1 odds to call a pot thats giving you 2/1, your a big underdog, and the blind probably has you beat. I think I would have folded.

given that you raised, this is a mandatory call. folding would be really bad.

Came back to check again, and some how missed that you raised already and her all in gave you 2/1 on your call with plenty of chips left. I definetly change my mind to call. Your taking the worst of it, and may lose, but win or lose your sending a signal that you can't be bullied and this can help you win other pots, and this will pay you back if you lost this race. I WOULDN'T LIKE IT, BUT WOULD CALL.

You are getting huge odds to call here, about 3.2:1, so unless the SB is so tight that their range is JJ-AA only, you have to call. The only reason not to call would be meta-game consequences of letting people see what you are raising with, but I can't imagine that being enough of a reason to fold.
