    + you have position. How did the flop go? The only thing with hands like this is you have to chuck unless you have 2 pair or better.

    Yeah. I called.

    Flop came T98
    sb open shoved 4k (with A8 - wtf!?)
    I called
    BTN called with KK

    It held, just wondered if I was getting the right price, i figured if I caught a big flop I could stack BTN reraiser

    He should really be 3-betting pot to maybe just about push you out. Position with T8s and decent odds + implied makes it a call, a lot of people would fold. Nh though and wp

    Including me, your hand is really speculative and the raisers put in 1/5th of his stack. If you made this call it should be to stack off on TP, which feels awful as the 3 bettor has like 2/3rds of your stack. You hit 2 pair with your hand roughly 2% of the time and your OOP to the 3 bettor.

    Maybe the question you should ask yourself is would Ross make this call?
