More of a mathematical question than anything else.
Villain was fish.
t40/t80 Blinds - 9 players
UTG: t1550 19.38 BBs
...
Hero (BB): t1950 24.38 BBs
Pre Flop: (t120) Hero is BB with :7s: :6h:
UTG calls t80, 7 folds, Hero checks
Flop: (t200) :5c: :3d:: :8d: (2 players)
Hero checks, UTG bets t160, Hero calls t160
Turn: (t520) :5s: (2 players)
Hero checks, UTG bets t240, Hero ?
Do I get good enough odds to call this bet? I figured that I have ~ 18% to improve, so that means that I have to win back ~ 6x the bet I called on the turn...right? My hand will be pretty hidden when I hit, but I don't think that villain will stack off every time. 70-80% maybe?
I knew about this rule from cash games, that you can call 3/4 of pot on flop and 1/2 pot on turn with a sd/fd, but what about SNGs? We're a lot shallower, so this changes I assume.
