You are usually beaten here but you need to make a crying call because the pot is offering you 6:1 odds. You only need to be ahead 1 in 7 times to make this a good call and at 2NL anything is possible.

thanks guys, i didn't even look at the river odds..everyone says that the river is the easiest place to decide whether or not to call a bet on, but i still have some trouble. i think i need to start reading up on some advanced odds and stuff.
