200 more into a 800 pot? and the guy behind is probably gonna call too....so im basically getting 5:1 on my money, and assuming i hit, im gonna get paid off big. He wont ever be able to put me on something like K8 either. Im 99% sure calling here is the right play but i could be wrong.

But based on what you just wrote, in order for you to "hit," you are going to need to flop 2 pair or better, yes? Because you're folding easily on any K or 8 high flop, right?

Do you see how this doesn't add up?

Also, from your example: 800/200 = 4. Not 5.

Defending Longshot for a second here, he assumed 5:1 because the limper behind him was obviously calling this bet as well

My mistake.

BTW, this is the part I was referring to, not so much this exact hand:

I may have misread this too, now that I reread it.

Either way, meh. I don't really care. I'm going to bow out of this thread and leave you to your venting.
