Default Re: knock out the jackass?? calling with a known coin-flip

I would fold. Chances are because he is drunk you will have a better position to take his chips. I don't like a coinflip here against him. Just wait until a better oppurtunity arises

Chances are better that one of the other people at the table will get them first.

You need to put in 4050 to win 4650 so you're basically breaking even on the call.

I'd fold.

Why bother racing against a retard, when you know you are behind?

You can get better than 50 50 down the track.

If the hands were reversed, it is a more interesting topic, because we are +ev to call, but need to reassess that +ev with what may happen down the track.

If the hands were reversed, it would of a no brainer. An obvious call.

Since the hands are like they are, I might even call anyway. It is 50/50.

It's not close if the hands are reversed. You would be passing on almost 1000 chips by folding. it would have to be a pretty amazing structure and you'd have to be mother[censored] awesome at poker to do better than that by holding on to your 4050.

easy fold.... if you are better than the table, he'll just bother them more than you. and that's always fun. having an annoying player lets you fly under the radar a little too. anyway you would only call if you are worried about 3-4 pother players at the table... think of course being that he'll lose the chips to them, and with a stack those guys are gonna crush you. the better you are the more likely you fold here.
