    Default Was I right to call or should I have folded?

    First up, I had this guy pegged as aggro and didn't really think that he was holding much.

    POKERSTARS GAME #4730707811: HOLD'EM NO LIMIT ($0.05/$0.10) - 2006/04/24 - 16:34:54 (ET)

    Seat 1: DZoolander1 ($6 in chips)
    Seat 3: kidbluff74 ($2.50 in chips)
    Seat 4: Gemma12 ($9.65 in chips)
    Seat 5: derfgolf ($15 in chips)
    Seat 6: Cirano ($20.50 in chips)
    Seat 7: benny1974 ($24 in chips)

    *** SHOW DOWN ***
    jameseyb: shows [Jc Jh] (a pair of Jacks)
    kidbluff74: shows [7d Kd] (a pair of Kings)
    kidbluff74 collected $5.60 from pot
    *** SUMMARY ***
    Total pot $5.85 | Rake $0.25
    Board [5s 9h Kc 4h Qh]
    Seat 1: DZoolander1 folded before Flop (didn't bet)
    Seat 3: kidbluff74 showed [7d Kd] and won ($5.60) with a pair of Kings
    Seat 4: Gemma12 (button) folded on the Flop
    Seat 5: derfgolf (small blind) folded before Flop
    Seat 6: Cirano (big blind) folded on the Flop
    Seat 7: benny1974 folded before Flop (didn't bet)
    Seat 8: joeontheroad folded before Flop (didn't bet)
    Seat 9: jameseyb showed [Jc Jh] and lost with a pair of Jacks

    Basically, given what I knew of him, he could have been holding anything. He could have pushed to protect a draw for a straight (holding JQs or similar was possible). The pot odds were nearly 4:1, so it was possible.

    Give me your views though, was I right to call his all-in? Should I have walked away from it?

    If you're going to bet that flop 4way, you gotta call the donk's mini-all in
    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

    Yeah, I'm now regretting the hand. Ah well, live and learn. Hopefully I won't make too many mistakes like this again.
