I'd fold this. The average calling range includes a 10 here and you're drawing to a runner runner and two remaining 8s(assuming you're not dominated with an 108s or some sort.

FWIW I instacall this. He NEVER has a ten here. The only hand I fear is 99 and A8. I expect to see 22-77 here a lot, and sometimes a draw.

I agree with this but with some adjustments. A lot of times this is a flush draw or a straight draw with a backdoor flush draw. I put 99-AA as fairly unlikely since these hands usually produce an all-in reraise preflop.

On the other hand, this could be a classic stop-n-go. However, given the likelyhood of all the various scenarios and the pot odds, I call here most of the time.

appreciate the feedback guys. FWIW, I called. He had Q5 of clubs and hit his flush on the river.

Perhaps I should have just pushed all in instead of the raise preflop? I nearly pot commited myself anyway, yes?
