Tournament, you call, but in a cash game you fold? That makes no sense. Explain.
I gamble in tournaments (as we all know here if you played me) if I call the turn with a big bet and river doesnt hit me I got chips left play with. As long as I got chips in a tournament I got a shot. Earlier in a 45 man SNG I was short stacked at the final table and took the chip lead. Im not afraid to be short stacked in a tourney.

In a cash game it is real money. I lose $600 in a cash game it is more than likely a long time of grinding it out to recover it. I am just now figuring this out. I lost BR after BR in cash games.

I am betting UTG had trips and you have to worry about the board doubling up even if you hit your straight or flush, or you may have to see the river in order to possibly hit.

Dont like the pot odds. I fold. If he has trips he sees the draws. If it doesn't hit on the turn he is going to give you horrible odds on the river if he knows what he is doing. Easy lay down for me with his bet on the flop.
