I think it depends on my opponent's style. Is he a Calling Station or a LAG? Btw he bet 5 BB.
First of all I should realize the facts:
- 2 players to bust and I'm in the money
- the pot is cca 12 BB
- my remaining stack is 32 BB
- I got a loose player with smaller stack (28 BB)
- I have 64,34% chance to win with 2,22% to tie
- flush and straight draw are on the table
Do You remember Hamlet's soliloquy? I help You: the right answer is "To raise or not to raise, that is the question".
My feelings are mixed. Yeah, he's a loose player but he has to know we are close to getting to the money. He started this round with a raise and now continues his agressive play. If he's a Calling Station I think I'm in trouble (maybe he got a top pair or AXs, suited K and high kicker). I call and why? I want to see the turn. And I'm not afraid to take a step (thanks Eminem for this sentence). And the other thing: if he's a CS I'm almost sure he got a pair and I don't have to afraid of AXs or KXs.
If he's a LAG player I have to recognize he will continue his agressive play. Raising is the worst thing to do. I don't want to hear an all-in. So call and pray.
Hey Hamlet, my answer is: Beggar that I am, I am even poor in raisings.
So my final decision is:
CALL and wait for my friends: A♦K♦
