To call or not to call, that is the question.

Villain is down as a poor player, i have taken off him quite a bit in the few times i have bumped in to him.

Easy question, is this a call?

    He doesn't often have AA, KK or AK as we'd almost certainly have heard about it pre-flop. If he has QJ or a very unlikely TT, then we're unlucky. KT, AT, AJ, AQ and a flush draw are all more likely than anything that beats you and there are lots more good hands than bad ones for you in his range.

    Make the call, expect to be in front and if we're behind we tap the table and say nice hand. If we're beat, we've been coolered... Looks most like a flush draw.

    Pretty much my thoughts on it. Just had a really bad feel about it and wanted to fold but i am glad that the general consensus was a call. I didnt like it to be honest but made the call to be shown 10,10 to give him a set.

    It's very unlucky. So unlikely he has the case tens there. It would have been wrong to fold though.
