Message: [QUOTE="DiazPoker3101, post: 7299565, member: 456107"] I think it depends on the position. For example, if you're in the BB with 4♠7♠ and the button opens 2x and the SB folds, I don’t think calling is that crazy, considering the button is opening very wide to steal the blinds. You could even 3-bet to around 6x if you want to protect your range. It really depends on a lot of factors, like the image the button has of you or your read on them. In that spot, calling to see a flop is fine. Now, if the hand is opened from UTG, MP, or CO, I’d mostly just defend, but if you completely miss the flop, it’s probably not worth continuing—folding is usually better there. Sometimes folding marginal hands and leaving your ego aside is necessary to survive in a tournament. But overall, it all depends on the specific situation you're in. [/QUOTE]
