[QUOTE="ChuckTs, post: 752074, member: 467"]
Yeah it definitely was hinging on the SB tagging along too, but I think I still like my call.

$18.50 in the pot after the 3-bet
$83.85 left in his stack, I have him covered

I'm getting 2.17:1 immediate odds

x:8.5 = 8:1
x/8.5 = 8/1
x = $68

I need to make $68 every time postflop to make this work if my math is correct which it very well might not be.  He won't necessarily stack that often, but factor in the times when the SB calls (which adds to my immediate odds), when he gets his stack in postflop (which adds to my implied odds), and the times when I can take the pot down with a raise like I tried this time (position ftw!) and I'd say it's a call.  It's certainly not clear, but I don't hate it.

As for the minraising point, it does carry some merit to it, but my opponents are generally fairly observant and I'd have to balance that play with some stronger hands as well which is something I don't want to do.  Players also tend to peel/call down light much more often in smaller pots as well, so I'm not sure I like it.  Maybe you could make a new thread about that - it's a whole 'nother issue in itself.
