Why do you fold it with 4-to-1 pot odds? assuming you're not joking... Fuck 4-1 pot odds bvb with a trash hand... You don't want to PLAY J3o...like..ever.. Either raise this pre and hope BB has the sense to fold so you get blinds, or, as you're 30bb deep and this is a 2$ tourny, fold you're sb and proceed to rape the table from button, cut-off and even possibly hi-jack. You really, really really don't want to play J3o limped out of position... I'm not joking, but I am not a good player. Harrington in his book says that if youre getting odds like that (against 1 player) you call with whatever trash you hold. What makes this such a bad call? What is the calling range in such a situation?

you can call an all in with those odds but you cannot play a hand with garbage like this
