Villain has about $10 left behind.

Any value in a raise here?

Anyone consider a fold? His line smells like BS a lot. Just call?

[Klompy]

I think he's overvaluing 3 of a kind or a straight or a 10 here often enough to call. I don't like a raise though.

[the_rookie]

I call.

[GrandMelon]

Yea I think he'll show up value betting a worse hand often enough to warrant a call.

[BT2]

hmmmm. only $10 left. i think a push is better than a call here without reads. you are most likely ahead here. villain could have gotten a straight on the river, trips on flop, or is donking chips off with 2 pair. by only calling this bet you would be missing value IMO.

[Thrahl]

Shove, sux if he had TT.

[SABR42]

I'm not folding here, that's for sure.

But if I push and get called, am I a favorite to win?

What I mean is, if villain has nothing, he's not paying off the last $10 because he has nothing.

Hes never folding any 8 for $10 more so I think a shove def has value.

[coordi]

Hes not folding ANYTHING for 10$ more. I think your required to shove here. if he runner runner boats you or has the higher flush, o well. Get it in.

Yeah, but when he calls will he have 8-x more often than a better flush or a boat?

That's the question to consider when deciding between call and raise.
