Before anyone asks where this is played, it is a home game.
Fairly high stakes ($10 blind/$500 buy-in)...dealers choice (HE,O8, 7stud 8ob, and many other crazy games...all played no limit)...stacks can grow to 5k+ by nights end. Please, no comments about the insanity of playing these games NL.

Anyway, we are playing triple draw low, Ace to Five.

After a moderate $25 bet preflop, I draw two to 3-4-5.

I Catch a deuce, king.

Early position player goes all in for $900! (he has me slightly covered) into a maybe $125 pot max. Everyone at the table drew two+ cards. However, I'm about 99% sure he has a weak 8, probably 8-7 or 8-6 AT BEST.

With two draws to my 2-3-4-5, is it a good call? I assume an A,6,7 are definitely good, and an 8 is most likely good. Also, bear in mind players behind me already indicated they were folding, so I wasn't worried about anyone else.

I figured it was about 50/50 to call, with the dead money probably I had positive EV, but didn't really feel like gambling.
