As for your call... it's a given. 15 real outs (probably more like 12-13 after discounting the outs) still makes it a coinflop even if he did flop the set.

Good question...because I never would have called a preflop all-in with A2 suited. Could be because he plays tight and wanted to have chips to fall back in case I raised which probably would make him fold?

feeling

I think it all depends on the feeling, if you have been hitting alot go for it, in tournaments you have to gamble, You have to play what your dealt and move up in money, cant just sit back and wait for monster hands, i say just go with your gut. The person may be a tight player but you know you have 2 nut draws and if they hit the hand is pretty much over.

well its 400-800 and u got 5200, the opponent 1900 - how many odds do u need and how many draws? for me, its an instant call

got so many chances to hit so almost impossible to fold - wot cud the tight player have? maybe a middle set or ace with a high kicker - still not the nuts so just get the chips in the middle
