    I would fold...considering your chip stack vs blinds you have plenty of time still to make moves and double up with great hands.

    Fold pf. As played pot turn. As played fold, board is paired you may be drawing dead. 30% to catch if you're not, not getting the odds plus there'll still be 7 players left, still got 2600 if you fold.

    Call PF

    Fold turn, our pot odds are disgustingly bad and there is no need to build a huge stack this early in a SnG that makes it worth the risk.

    I call this, hit the 10 of clubs on the river, bash the table and proceed to donk off at a cash table.

    fold to his push and wait for a better opportunity to take his ass.

    standard turn bet by you but u gotta fold with only one card to come and the possibility that u may even be drawing dead.

    guys, this is just a basic math question. there is a definitive right answer-which happens to be fold-and anyone who calls here is making a huuuuuuuuge and absolutely inarguable mistake. check it:

    we have 15 outs, 9 spades, 4 deuces, and 4 sevens. (we actually could be drawing dead, but we'll ignore that possibility for now.) there are 46 cards left in the deck, so we're 31-15 against hitting on the river, or approximately 2-1. now let's look at our pot odds: we need to call off 1050 chips to give ourselves a shot at winning the pot of 1400. so our pot odds are 1400-1050, about 1.4-1. that's NOWHERE NEAR the threshold of 2-1 it needs to be to make a call profitable. and that's even assuming that we win the pot every time we hit!

    anyone who calls here is doing themselves a huge disservice and will definitely struggle to be a winning player overall.
