Re: Another common spot with AK
here's my thought process for what is worth
if i call there will be $22 in the pot--i have to pay $4 to call, so the pot will be 5.2 times greater than what i put in...how many outs do i have? i have a gutshot, backdoor flush draw and two overcards, so i will give myself the equal of 5 clean outs, maybe more...47 cards with 5 winners, i need the implied odds to be 9.2 for what i put in...that is more than pot odds right now...can i get those extra bets in the pot if i make my hand? that would be another $16 or so, and i have it in my stack, would i get the action for that plus more? could my hand be beaten by a redraw? and if i get redrawn, how do i feel out re-buying?
there seems to be justification for a call here although risky...here i would probably opt to fold...i'd figure if the villain makes a habit of these plays i can take advantage of it later to get his whole stack when i have a made hand
