So I'm at this table, and I'm trying to get a feel for the players...Long story short this hand came up....

1st the Call was honestly a Mistake.....
2nd the Checking was the only option with so many players at-least so I thought...

3rd) Do you make the call?

Why would you make the call? Even if you know he's bluffing, if he shows up here with a pair a 2's your toast.Just a really bad spot.

Ya but why would he raise that much with 2s though? I guess your right though we are behind alot of hands in that situation there

Although that screams bluff you can't call in that situation.

I would definitely fold that hand, even thinking that your opponent is bluffing. Your hand is too weak for this situation.

I think maybe the buton has already boated and he just wanted the donk with a 10 in his hand to call. So i think he slowplayed waiting for someone to catch up.This things happens at micros. Simply he missed his chance to value his set and now he puts his stack in hoping someone has a 10. This is standard. As for Naruto's play ... i think it was a mistake from the beginning entering the hand, and also i think he has to fold without thinking. Simply the are no odds here. Overcard on a board like this with so many callers equals nothing. Simply you did not belong in this hand from the beginning. You tryed to get lucky putting almost 15% of you stack on the line. But once you called with a flop like this you had to check you check/fold option on all the streets. If he has a 3 you are out. But i think he has more than that. I really think he missed on valueing from the flop since the board was so dry.

I would have folded, definitely. If he has anything, anything, you lose, even if he's bluffing with A8 or higher kicker, you lose... besides, you only had 125 chips in the pot, why risk the remaining 875 chips without even holding a small pair?

Are u serious?

The PF call was not really a mistake. Not a great move, but not so bad that you should label it a mistake. Fits with what I see you doing.

But considering calling here is madness. Especially as you say you haven't got reads on anyone yet. If you called and won, it was a fluke.
