$400 nl game at Full Tilt. My second round at the table, so no reads. I'm in the bb w. JT off, and it comes down to battle of the blinds, limp, check. I'm on $180, he's at $560. Flop comes J6J rainbow. He leads out and bets min, $4. I figure this is a safe flop so I just call. Turn is a still unsuited 8, he checks, I bet $8, he raises to $34, I call. River's a duece, he pushes all-in. Clock is ticking, what do you do?

Call.

Call.


Yep.

Personally i have nearly broken the keyboard to call, but I am not always as right as I am eager.

Judging by the stacks he COULD be bullying you, However, it really depends how much you value your 180 dollars. I would call in the situation as you describe although, against the right player I would also be willing to lay it down. A tough one but probably just about a call and a willingness to reload.

If it were a tourney, I might well pass this hand in this spot.

raise preflop. raise the flop.

but call, probably, without any reads.

i'm betting you lost to J8 or 88, though, or maybe that you folded.
