    Default Would you call here? ($5)

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

    CO (t1490)
    Button (t1010)
    SB (t600)
    BB (t1920)
    Hero (t3350)
    UTG+1 (t1070)
    MP1 (t1720)
    MP2 (t2340)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with , .
    Hero calls t30, UTG+1 calls t30, MP1 calls t30, 2 folds, Button calls t30, SB completes, BB checks.

    Flop: (t180) , , (6 players)
    SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets t90, UTG+1 raises to t1040, MP1 folds, Button folds, SB calls t570 (All-In), BB folds, Hero ???

    So... should I call this? UTG+1 is very loose, not sure about the other one.

    Fold this preflop from UTG. The only time I'm playing suited connectors is a) from the CO or button with at least 2 limpers in front or b) from the blinds when I'm getting something close to 8:1 on the call.

    As played, I would call. An open ended straight flush draw is a monster draw, you're likely better than 50% to win this unless he flopped a full house or quads, which is very unlikely. This is most likely a Acxc draw - if UTG+1 did flop a full house or quads, they would be unlikely to push this flop! Plus with your stack size you can take the hit if you don't win and still be chip leader.

    HU against AA(no clubs) or Ac8h your 50/50 ish.

    if one has jacks and the other has Ac8h your 43%.
    if one has jacks and the other has As7h your 37%.

    1880 pot 950 to call roughly 2:1

    I can't do the chip model bit but I reckon call.

    Ok. Thanks guys. I normally fold these pre-flop too but as a big stack I sometimes do these stupid things... especially when the blinds are little.
