Call this all-in river bet?

[easye]

Do you call this all-in river bet?

With one going all-in, most likely would call (even though that would be tough). With two all-ins, I'm not so sure.

I thought exactly the same thing and I did. But was stunned to see the following showdown:

SUMMARY

Pot: $101.60, (including rake: $1)
x bomber007 bets $40.60, collects $99.20, net $58.60
mathias148 loses $2
Her0 loses $17
Stephaniel5 bets $42, collects $1.40, net $-40.60
tofi10 loses $0


But, I guess that's just results oriented thinking and I should just move on. Just couldn't believe my eyes and had to post it to see if I somehow was thinking about this wrong.

nah, fold is fine with me, youre just being results oriented, anytime you see donk plays like this you think to yourself do i even know how to play this game, looks like you do.

[dashman]

I think a fold is good here. I'm new to NL and I think this is one of those things that makes us better then the rest, especially folding to a river all-in, as I found you are normally beat when this occurs. Good fold.

[Nologo]

Yeah, I figured the only reason you were asking was because it turned out to be a bad fold, but this is correct the vast majority of the time.
