Default On the button in a akward situation

100NL table at paradise, Im on button with K/J bunch of limpers so I limp in

Rainbow flop, 10/Q/7 4 players all in before me, Im sure Im against atleast 2 sets at this point, I have to call 120$ to take down 570$ pot? What do you do?

My thinking at the time was with this many people allin that all 8 of my outs were most likely live and im going to hit this thing 32% of time so I think it was correct play, Im pretty sure Jason you could help me out on this.

Anyways I call and they flip up A/A 7/7 10/10 AND Q/10, I hit the 9 on the turn and river was a 6 and took down a massive pot for a 100Nl table.

Btw the idiot with A/A goes in 1st, doesnt he realize that nobody is going to call him unless they have him beat on the flop.

In your situation I'd call and post it in Glory Corner.

pot odds of 4.75 to 1. no implied odds to consider since everyone is all in.
8 outs with 47 cards remaining...39/8...4.875 to one.

marginal call assuming all your outs are live.

The other factor that probably tilts this towards bad is that with 3 sets out there (your read)...there is a likelihood of someone hitting full house some % of time which leaves you drawing dead.

Dont feel like doing the math any deeper, but I think this is -EV.

Congrats on hitting it though.

I'm not sure I would have called here, thinking either TPTK or AA was out there, meaning I have fewer live outs and even if I hit there is a decent chance someone will boat. Fortunately in this situation, practically every out that someone could have to draw to a full boat was dead.

IMO the specific scenario is even money (accounting for slim full boat potential, backdoor flush potential, and the backdoor strait to split with Mr. AA), and I wouldn't take even money when so much money is at stake. I wouldn't think I was even money here anyway, because you can't know that all but 3 outs for the combined FB draws are dead (I would assume there was probably 5 live FB outs, plus the slim runner-runner chance).

All that said, the call is certainly not a bad play.

My name isn't Jason, but I'll try.
First let's assume you put them on exactly the correct hand.(Afterall, you do have ESP)
Board: Tc 7d Qs
equity (%) win (%) / tie (%)

Hand 1: 01.8893 % [ 00.02 00.00 ] { AdAc }
Hand 2: 58.2996 % [ 00.58 00.00 ] { ThTd }
Hand 3: 09.3117 % [ 00.09 00.00 ] { QhTs }
Hand 4: 05.1282 % [ 00.05 00.00 ] { 7h7c }
Hand 5: 25.3711 % [ 00.25 00.00 ] { KhJc }

You win here 25% of the time.
You called 120+570(inthepot) =690.
25% of 690=172.5 I think
$172.5>$120 +EV

with two people having sets, that cuts down the odds of the boat. I would be too terribly suprised if someone had AQ.
