4 folds, Villian pushes for 7k, SB folds, Hero..?
Do you make this call?
I think Villians range is very wide here and that I probably have about ~50% vs it so a call is obv +chipEV.
However, Villian is a dangereous opponent that I dont want to double up, but on the other hand it would be great to eliminate him. Another aspect is that if I fold I have more than avarage but if I call and lose I go down to 20k. The hurt of losing 7k is obv much bigger for me than the good things about increasing by about the same amount. Also, I almost never have more than 60% even if I am a favourite.
If you think I am off in my reasoning above plz eloborate in what way.
