Day 1 of the blondepoker.com Waterford Winter Festival
€500 NLH F/O, 275 starters (156 returned for Day 2)
It is the penultimate level of the day, blinds are 200/400(25)

Relatively new table.

Seat 2: Middle-aged woman, haven't seen her play a hand yet, has been quiet = about 25k
Seat 4: Middle-aged man, likes to play cash games (apparently), seems willing to play hands = 35-40k
Seat 10: Hero = about 23k

Hero raises 1.1k from earlyish position with . Mateygirl calls, as does Mateyboy.

Flop =

Hero bets out just over 3k.

Mateygirl counts out her chips, dwells momentarily and pushes all-in for around 24k total.

Mateyboy rises and announces that he can't get away from the hand and calls.

Do you fold your hand or call-in for your remaining 19k?

My worry here is that the 9 may all you'll be drawing to..... I fold and see Day 2.

The only problem is one of them could be drawing to the nut flush.

Mateyboys comment of "I can't get away from this" might suggest that.

I think mateyboy who says he cant pass the hand has some sort of royal flush draw or  . Although great odds to call and get a really healthy stack but like someone else said you may only be drawing to a 9

Fold from me. Could easily be in a world of pain here, regardless of having right odds.

would be a fold...the lads comment gives the impression he is after a flush aswell perhaps...fold and wait for later for flush draws.[last tourny i had a pair and nut flush draw from flop...couldnt let it go and paid for it when i was about 4th best stack...

I call pot odds dictate and i don't think either has a flush draw often enough to justify thinking that some of our odds are counterfeited.
