    Mr. McJ... the call there is extremely weak. Either you think you're definantly behind, then you fold... or you think there's a good chance you're ahead, and you raise. There is no reason to call there and give up the initiative. Notice that you wound up getting your whole stack in anyway... if you're going to CALL for the rest of your stack on the river, why not BET the rest of your stack on the turn? It both protects your hand if you're ahead and gives you a bit of folding equity if you're behind (not likely with something that beats top 2, but hey...). Finally, if he's drawing he'll ONLY pay you on the turn, never on the river.
    -You may not know this, but poker is a game of incomplete information.
