Blinds are 25-50I have about 3100 in chipsPlayer 2 has about 1200Player 3 has about 1050I am playing 6 handed holding JDQCPlayer 2 makes the first raise, double the big blind, I call because she is a weak player, as does the button.The flop comes 8C9CACPlayer 2 bets out 200, I raise it to 400, amd Player 3 moves all in for around 1000 total. Player 2 folds, and it's on me.The draw is nice, and something tells me he has nothing but A-rag, but it's still a tough spot. The pot odds don't necessarily demand a call, but to eliminate this player would make me the big stack with a nice position to win the tournament.Do I call the 650 more on the draw, or do I lay this down?I folded the hand, but after more speculation, I think a call might have been the right move. (I was also very wary of Player 3 holding the Kc)Still a tough spot.

Hmm.It's real close.I probably call more often than not because of the chance of knoking a player out and the pot odds being so close to correct.I don't think folding is particularly bad either.How much exactly is in the pot and how much is it to call?
