Default What would u do?

what would u do??

was on the 2500/5000 table earlier and was in a hand with pres77..
there was no raise pre flop and the flop came 567.. i had A8 so floped an open ended str8 draw.. he bet out so i called.. turn was an ace so now i had top pair and a str8 draw. then he bet the pot so i called again..
the river was an ace witch i thought was a good card. but then he bet all in 500k! so i thought for a min and put him on a full house so i folded it was a hard fold but i was right he told me after the hand he had pocket 7s..
just wondered if u would of called the all in and be truthfull lol

heres a sreen shot..

for being nosey and wanting to see what he had and it only being 500k, yes i would have called the hand.

sometimes i think i need to find me fold button more though lol.

also depends on who im up against

I'm with Patience, rightly or wrongly I would have probably got a rush of blood to the head when the Ace came on the river and called.

I guess it is a hard one to judge and it also begs the question how well do you know the player who is making the bet. If it were someone who I would class as a cautious player, then I probably would have folded.

Can we have more threads like this one please !!!

Simple answer - Call

The question, as asked, is a simple one, or so it seems. Given the information you provide, you are on a play money table, and given the blinds I would have to assume you have a substantial stack in reserve. So call is the answer for me, and that would be why I might lose that hand. On the play money side it depends how you feel about getting on the top list as to how many risks you are willing to take.

If this were a real money table, then I would have folded. I think (and I am sure those who play real money can confirm this) that the odds are in his favor. Based on the betting I would have to think he had it.

I tend to play the two types of chips differently. Even on the old scripts, once I got my stack to a certain level I would play KOTH wide open on the risk level.

Long answer to a short question.

he bet every round, including bet pot and all-in, so i guess i'd have folded- but tht's easy to say just looking at the info, if i was right there and then i may have called out of impulse... three aces is three aces, and there was no flush out. He could have had:

1- An ace with bigger kicker
2- A straight
3- or as deano suspected, and turned out truthfully, a full house

too many possibilities to be beaten by, calling seems more hopeful than anything...and i'm a tight @$$ anyway so, fold

gr8 thread deano, put 'em up more often
