Is this an easy fold, or is it the sort of chance you ought to take in a mtt if you want to run deep?

I'm know I'm probably behind, but are there enough outs?

    Snap call, with amount invested your getting the odds to hit. will be 1 in 3 you hit here but definately worth the gamble against 1 oppenent also 2 overs to the board so could be additional outs, not a bad fold tbf just depends on how much you want to gamble, but i dont mind gambling early on to build a good chipstack to make the middle parts easier

    Thanks gents, I feel better for that. I called and lost, but I can live with that if it wasn't blindingly stupid.

    I've worked my way up from 30p DYM's but am aware that as I come up against better players the game that's won money for me at the bottom end is too tight, too nitty and too card dependant. Trying to work out where the balance point is without donking too often at the moment.

    If calling isn't a bad play here, would shoving first myself be a better play?

    I've raised up and only been called, so chances are nobody has a top end pair.

    With the amount you've already invested, snap call! he will probably have some sort of 9, or pocket 10's. So you would probably have two overcards to hit, + 4 to  a flush.
