    This is a snap fold for me, you're raising to steal the blinds not to get it all-in. Live to fight another day, I say!

    Perfect hand to analyze with something like PokerStove....

    You're paying 1180 to win 2185 (1570 + 390 + 225). So you only need to win 35% of the time to earn back your equity in the hand.

    Let's give Thrash a range of 22+, AT+, KQ. Pretty tight...top 12% of hands. Your PokerStove outcome is:

    equity win tie pots won pots tied
    Hand 0: 34.254% 33.83% 00.42% 83419575 1039990.50 { Qd9h }
    Hand 1: 65.746% 65.32% 00.42% 161072220 1039990.50 { 22+, ATs+, KQs, ATo+, KQo }
