Should I call with my 4, 6 suited?

[Hipsdontlie69]

playing only $4-$8, UTG raised, 4 other people called, and I'm in the button with 46suited, Should I call here?

[Scarmiglio]

No. Read SSHE. 46s is marginal for one bet and a definite fold for 2. You want to get in for one bet with these hands. This also goes for 67s, 78s, 89s, etc...

[Frond]

Easy fold(for me that is).

[bravos1]

BB yes, BTN no

I figure there are so much money that I can get out if I dont hit my straight or flush, much like pocket deuce.

usually if you hit a pair and you fold for one bet you are making a mistake.

I don't know if I should laugh or cry. Small pocket pairs are different because if you flop a set you will usually win and you have good implied odds. You will make a winning hand with a pocket pair far more often than you will make a winning hand with 64s. This is why you can't call this for 2 bets. Like I said before, read SSHE.

You will hit your straight or flush infrequently enough that your expected return is negative. To say that another way, if you consistently pay two bets with this (or similar) hands in this spot, even if you hit a straight or flush every once in a while you will lose money over the long term.

There may be a particular situation where this is ok, but without very specific reasons (much more than "sometimes low limit players raise for no reason") this is a bad call.

I wouldn't. I probably would complete in the BB though.
