Default Re: Thought my turn call was right

You should call that turn, as you said, if there is no flush draw showing and there are 2 other players involved in the hand.
As you state correctly, you had 13 outs from 44 unknown cards. Heads up, you do not make this call if it means a significant amount of money going into the pot. 3 way hand, when you factor in the dead money in the pot, you need 25% equity (which you have) assuming another straight wrap isnt out there. Basically, your call was fine IF and only IF you think that the last player to act (in this case the button) will NOT reraise. When you call, you really want to be in a position where your call closes the action, with people left to act behind you , and given that your equity is pretty close, you may want to fold here.
What you dont want is for the button to come over the top.
