There aren't too many hands beat you there - K9, 99, 22. Maybe AK. This can easily be a flush draw - especially QdJd or JdTd. You easily have more than 23% equity.

Call, 99 22 and K9 are the only things I could see him having that beat you here. KK and AK seem like they would have reraised preflop.

Getting just about 2-1 this is a no brainer call. Your looking at a flush here quite a bit. I really think we are only behind here about 10% of the time if that.

What do you put him on that you're gonna fold here? I think it'd be a huge mistake to fold this hand.

We're getting good pot odds. We have a backdoor flush draw. We have a backdoor straight draw. We're beating a lot of hands. Also, our call closes the action.


If I was shortstacked, I'd be aggressively pushing KT or KJ here. I'd also be pushing my flush draws.

We are likely ahead and if not, then we still might be able to weasel out of the hand. I think you're winning more often than not though.

This is an easy call.

Damn I'd make this call but I wouldn't be happy about it. I hoping for KJ or a draw.

Fair enough. I didn't consider all the factors. Folding would be very weak here.

Any reason we have two King of spades in the deck.....

You might wanna give support a call. My guess villian held K icon_suit_spade.gif K icon_suit_spade.gif , so easy fold.

It's still an easy call.

The thing is, it becomes more about your hand and less about theirs when you realize that their stack requires them to push any hand that they wanna play, be it a draw, a set, or any pair. At that point, putting them on a hand isn't as big of a deal. Just play your hand strength against their huge range and go with the pot odds.

Calling here is right by a HUGE margin.
