    Cheers fellas, totally agree with bet sizing too.

    I thought i`m never going to be in front if i make the call, not results orientated and would fold again in a similar situation.

    Looks so **** pretty though lol

    I think I'd call. I do like a gamble ;)

    Had a similar spot in the Roller last night. Was down to like 9 bigs, with KQo in the BB. 2 limpers, including one from UTG that I was suspicious of, but I shipped anyway. Original limper snap rejammed and other limper called. In that split second before you see the cards I was thinking 'brilliant, I've been stitched up here'. They flipped over JJ and 66 and I was actually very happy.

    Was even more happy when JJ flopped a set and I went perfect runner runner for broadway.

    All skill this game ;)

    It really is dependant on how many glasses of wine i`ve consumed.

    For some reason, the call/ raise/ all in options seem to get much larger on my screen as the evening progresses, also the fold button has almost disappeared!!!!

    -10pm... fold    +10pm ...call/all in!!

    Strange but (maybe) true.

    FWIW, your alias is worth 26 points in Scrabble, That is all.

    I would call as we're actually ahead.  We're something like 38% to win.

    I'd snap if it was the Turbo or a BH, might pass in the Primo and Rebuy mains.

    Only 26? Bit disappointing that. 

    Amen about the fold button getting smaller. Few shandies in and mine evaporates.

    I didn't factor in the 96o hand as he only had something like 50 chips.
