    The PF call sucks just because it's hard to know when you have the best hand and you need someone else to have a hand to pay you off. Otherwise, nh.

    Here was my thinking....
    I had been card dead since the start of the tournament.
    The blinds were about to go up to 50/100.
    I was getting 5.5 to 1 on my money.
    And I was pretty sure I could outplay these 2 post flop.

    fold pf, once you get to the flop, easy call.

    turn is easier call.

    looks like I'm not normal, but I will call any bet with 5.5:1 pot odds when I'm last to act... especialy if i know the original raiser can raise low gap connectors and then over play them like hell post flop.

    you dont have to win the hand very often to break even on that play... caonsidering its almost impossible to loose a big pot with T4o, I think this play is way +EV.

    but thats just me.

    KJ
