You're short stacked, got to see a free flop, and have a decent draw. I like the push here.

I check here. You're probably not going to get 4 people to fold and this bet is only good if you have fold equity.

i think i do have some FE here. 870 was a sizeable amount to all that was in the pot.

Even if you don't have much fold equity, you have a decent draw.

Oh wow... you were SB? I thought you were BB the whole time. Fold PF definitely.

not arguing here but plaease explain because i have a hard time understanding that 1. i am in need of a big pot and all i have to call to possibly get 1 is 50. i feel that the risk of 50 now is more +ev than using those in a later hand to double up for only 50 more.

there are still 8 players. you're hand is pretty bad. the odds of flopping two pair or better are worse than 9 to 1. you'll more than like get a hand that you can push this orbit and not have to face three limpers. etc etc.
