    obviosuly, based on the result, i should have raised, my question is, with 3 people left in the 20-180, is it a good decision to raise, will i be called more often by a hand im beating than by a hand that is beating me...i found it to be a tough spot, not sure if my way of thinking was correct...will post the results, after some feedback is given...

    its 3 handed so calling requirements don't have to be all that high... any 9 would probably call a raise and possibly even a 5 here.. there were a lot of draws that could of missed you so from the other person perspective you may be bluffing a good percentage of your range so may value w/ any pair. though much of this depends on table dynamics and what you think the villian is capable of
