Well This guy was quite aggressive. I thought I had enough odds to calls this I mean I had a open-ended straight draw, and 2 over cards. What do you guys think about how I played this?

Please run a converter on the hand history, or at least take out results.

You do pretty much have the odds to call the all in, but if he's so aggressive to push TP like this, I would wait to make a 2 pair + hand and do that instead of try to push a draw - seems like not enough fold equity. Also, what's with the short stack?

I was running bad, and got sucked out my AKs got beaten by a K9o just before

If he pushes top pair there I'm not waiting for 2p or better. It's a big draw where I expect to win with a K/8/J/Q and sometimes the J or Q won't be live, but that's life.

I think you need some fold equity to make this a good play since he could easily have 2pr/set. If he's mostly leading out with top/mid pair and bluffs then I agree it's a good play, but I meant I don't like it if he has a sorta tight leading range that isn't folding.

You're short, gamb00l. The odds are there.

easy call with the short stack
