This hand was in a tournament...

I have 8♦8♠ I raise from cutoff, he calls from BB...

flop Q♦6♣J♦, I cbet half pot he called...

turn 10♦, check check...

river 9♦ he checks, I bet half pot around 5k, he jams for 38k and I have 25k behind...

And take into consideration that I have only 20 seconds to act, time bank was not available...

Call. There's only 1 card in the deck that can beat you and there's about a 5% chance that your opponent has it.

I mean since you beat the Ad here you have to call.

If he has the Kd you were just going to be done with this tournament on that hand. :p

Why 1 card? Two::kd4::ad4: ...and they were in the hands of the opponent.:D

I'm saying that the opponent only needs 1 card to beat him. He only needs the Kd.. If he had the Ad without the Kd, then that's just the flush. Obviously the AKd will give the opponent the Royal Flush.. But the Ad is not needed to beat the hero.

Call. If he happens to have it then it’s a sick cooler. Very unlucky obviously.
