    I dont think this is an instacall even at 10NL. Its probably slightly profitable to call. you need to be up against a range of at least JJ+, AQ+ for this call to be profitable. You probably just about get that.
    gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

    this is a pretty sucky spot. i actually would probably fold without a read telling me to do otherwise. I bet they have aa/kk/ak a lot. nearly totally read dependent though, i don't remember exactly how 10nl plays.
    i betcha that i got something you ain't got, that's called courage, it don't come from no liquor bottle, it ain't scotch

    working myself up to FTR fullhouse status while not giving 1 solid piece of advice
    go ahead and let it go - 10NL players LOVE to do this with huge hands...1 of the reasons is they are all superstitious about getting cracked with AA or KK so they would just rather not learn to play postflop...they love to gripe and moan about how they never win with aces but then lay bad beats on people all over the place quoting their "odds" they had - Its laughable really

    let this one go, start trying to get a feel for the guy and see if he's full of crap or maniacal...but this play is made Quite often at these limits...I would say if you had 1/2 a buy in, go with it - but no reason to lose a full buy in there...learning to lay down big hands is one of the best things you can do and it's strangely rewarding leaves me warm and fuzzy anyway
