Since I mostly play limit but some NL I am just going to ask some questions here, I guess for both of us to think about and perhaps some more experienced NL players will come along with logical answers.

First: Why would we call the rest of our chips in a cash game if we are 90% sure we are beat? The only reason I can think of is if the pot is offering us 9+ to one odds and we are closing the action. Otherwise why not just get away from it?

When you put in half your stack you either thought you were ahead or the pot was giving you correct odds to call right? If you thought you were ahead has anything changed? If you were drawing behind with proper odds did you miss? Are the current odds to call less than we need? Maybe post the hand?
