I think push is better than CRAI, but what about a flat call? This way me get the BB to hang around and help build the pot.

I don't like the call.

As said, you need FE to make this hand +EV, further you need to see both turn and river, to make it worth a play.

If you commit yourself you have to play for your whole stack and if you miss your draw on the turn you will face a big bet, where you don't get the odds to call.

There's good advice in this thread. You're too short to complete the SB here hoping to catch a lucky flop. If you have 50 BBs, sure, go ahead and speculate a little. But with 10 BBs, you're options are limited.

You'll need to double up in order to get anywhere in this tourney. Spewing 150 chips here is like losing 300 if you do double. Plus, it also lessens your FE when you have to pushbot.

Everyone says the same,everyone is right,you have to fold this preflop. If you doubt it,look st the result,you went broke with a horrible hand. As played,you have to bet the flop if you want to play at all. With a bet,you have FE,with a c/r,you have none. Although I doubt he folds his draw,he might,ok,he prob wont but he might....

But easy fold preflop

Ummm, this is clearly NOT the reason to fold this pf. You could have flopped JJ8 and it still would have been wrong.

Is this an acceptable call with any of the above:

J-8 suited, J-9o, J-9 suited, J-10o

Why or why not?
