No, his shove is less than 4 BBs, so based on pot odds you can call with any two cards.

You need to pay 1900 to win 3600, so you're close to getting 2-1 pot odds and need to win in (slightly more than) 33% to be profitable. Based on your cards, you were even getting 36%, so mathematically all correct. ☺️

Just didn't work out this time

It would be an ok call, if you were closing the action. But with someone left to act behind you, its a clear fold. Even here, where BB folded, you were only just getting the right odds against LPs actual hand, and being against a hand like KJ is one of the better situations to end up in, because you had two free cards. And some percentage of the time BB will call, in which case you end up in a bloated 3-way pot with a really bad hand and few ways to win. Or even worse he will 3-bet in which case you wont even get to see a flop.

Oh, you're right! I read he was in BB. Then it's a different story for sure. 😱😅

Yes, this is a slightly negative call, well, at best, near zero, if we really want to play such a hand here, then we need to make a raise to isolate the big blind, but there is not much sense in this, since there is no bounty for the players here

Sorry I forgot to mention that the BB was in sit out at the time of the hand, that's why I made the call. My bad for not mention it.
