Re: To call or not to call? With no reads on your opponent, I can see absolutely no way you can contemplate calling - dead cert fold for me....... At a $1 buy in, entirely possible your opponent has anything and you could have him beat, but still no way you can call. There is way too much that beats you!!! I don't like the check raise post flop - your hand isn't that strong!!!!!
