Early in a DYM, I got dealt QQ's. I KNOW that I should NEVER be just calling here, but alas I did - had my focuses slightly away at the time. Flopped 2x Pairs, QQ's & 4's with a seven accounpanying them. Only opponent left in the hand then Jam's on me. After careful thought, I could sence that I didn't want to call, as Knowing how things CAN go, there maybe something like a full-house 4's & 7's hiding in the wings - I clicked the fold button, thinking, I may as well protect my stack and live to fight on. What would you have done here?

    I'd have to be calling. Every chance he's sitting on a worse pp or something like A7, or possibly even air like KJ. You must be ahead of 80% of his range. Percentages say call.

    I rarely play DYM's but this is an easy GII spot. Our hand is ridiculously under-repped. I actually like the donk out, plan worked perfectly to get him to commit, and then you fold?!

    the fact you only called pre should give you even more reason to call as he has no idea you are strong, at worst here i think you are up against a flush draw which you crush on a paired board
