Make it 5 preflop, flop is fine, turn is fine if you made it like 34.

That 4 is a good card. 38, call a shove.

So this makes the pot equal to the size of the villain's remaining stack, and if he shoves, I'm getting 2-1 on a call.

Villain is unknown...if he shoves, aren't I drawing to either 2 outs (against trips/FH) or 4 outs (straight) the vast majority of the time? Is this a call I really want to me making? (This isn't the line I took, but this is one of the outcomes that was bothering me as I was looking at the hand in retrospect.)

Or are 55, 66, 88, 99, FD shoving often enough to make the call profitable? I understand if I give him this range, then it becomes a math problem, but I'm just wondering if "typical" opponents in these games are really pulling moves like this?

No, if you bet then his all in will be like a half pot raise and you will be getting 3:1. Basically here you have to bet for value, and if you bet for value you have to call since you've put in half the effective stacks and it's the turn.

I think you have to add A6 and A5 of spades to the villain's range. And A4 of spades, which you're now trailing.

Gah. I'm dumb. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

FWIW, my thought process at the time was:
- folding seems unwise (and I don't think the software at this site allows it anyway)
- checking is out of the question
- so, bet...the amount was what I was getting hung up on.

So, thanks all...I understand this situation a lot better now.
