Hi man, for me it is a simple question with a simple answer. If licke in your case someone pushes all in with a flush draw and you are holding two pair you of course call him. That is the right thing to do. If he hits his flush he is just lucky.

Assess the tournament you are in. Assess the competitors at the table. Assess the table. Adjust your range depending on the information that you gain. Assess your position. Assess your hand. Don't just play your hand. You will never win anything!

this is one of my biggest pet peeves. I run into these guys often enough but if you have a strong hand you go with it. As much as it sucks if they catch there miracle card you still have to play it because the odds are in your favor. In the long run you will win and he will loose. Maybe not that hand but in the long run you will have it. Think of it this way... If all it took was the strongest starting hand in poker to win then it would be a pretty simple game. But they don;t call it gambling for nothing. Like I said it really ticks me off when it happens to me but I also have to remember that there are times that I am trying to draw the flush. Now when I do that I am not neccisarily all in but if I am short stack maybe. You have to admit that even you have played a long shot once and a while. Take care Mobsters.

True and he doesnt take advice either....
he is still young as well and hoping to get that big payday based on luck. It has taken me 2-3 years now to even stay in the green as of right now, I have alot to learn and need to learn bankroll management something he clearly doesn't have either. Also learning to deal with donks is the hardest thing to overcome but sometimes you just need to play like they do and with crap cards to come out ahead!
