I think this is 2/4, yes?

If that is the case, buy-in for the full amount next time. Since you're this short, no way you're getting away from it. In fact, you might as well shove preflop.

Your flop call was easy because you're getting good odds to fill up.

No, but it becomes a moot point. You're either 1) getting money in while ahead 2) getting proper odds to pay for your draw. So essentially we don't care about calling.


This flop is an easy play for stacks or half stacks in yours.

People will cram this with TPTK+gutshot. NFD+gutshot, and allsorts of strange 2 pair crapola. Not to mention you have outs on everything except AA.

If hero's behind, odds to fill up don't mean a damn thing.

I call anyway, and expect to be up against AK/AQ/AJ/JJ/flush draws/etc plenty of times.
