Default Re: Oops...misread the board -- disregard.

Okay if what someone else posted is correct.

PF: Blinds 20/40K Antes 5. 8 People at the Table. Raymer Raises to 150k, Kantor Calls. Theres 400k in the Pot.

Raymer then bets half pot, 200k. Kantor Calls. Now there's 800k in the Pot.

Kantor Leads for 600k. Now there 1.4 Million in the Pot. He has approximately .9 left. Raymer goes allin. If Kantor wins the pot he has 3.8 Million Chips which is 23%. If he folds he has .9 left which is what a little less than half of average. His odds of winning the hand are 18%. Now he's not exactly getting the right odds for a call, but is it that bad, not really. Especially when he doesn't know his overcards aren't good. If he thinks there good he has 14 outs versus a potential AK of a different suit or any non-paired pocket pair. In that case he's getting 3 to 1 on his money. If odds are that Raymer has AK half the time and KK the other half, he is making the right call, sad as it may seem.
