    double or nothing, all 10 players still left, blinds at 25/50, everyone hovering near the starting stacks of $1500.

    Hand is Ac7s

    Player A raises $160,  call $160 w/ A7, rest fold so two people in hand

    Flop 7Q2 rainbow

    Player A bets out $525.  You Call.

    Turn 2d

    Player A bets out $579 (amount of your stack left) putting you all-in

    What do you do there?

    Calling preflop in this spot is a major mistake

    As played, if youre gonna call pre flop and on the flop you HAVE to call off on the turn. Like I said, I dont like the way you played this hand AT ALL but, as played, you cannot fold the turn once youve already put  . .  well hold on itlooks like your math is wrong. You sa you only have 579 left on turn but you actually . . .

    Original stack - 1500

    minus 160 preflop
    minus 525 on flop
    equals 815 left, not $579 as you posted above

    Ugh, with 815 left i guess you can fold here but youve just put yourself in such a shitty spot by calling preflop and on the flop

    In my opinion :

    FOLD PREFLOP!!! Honestly, its a brutal call preflop
    THEN
    If you have to call preflop, either fold or shove all-in on the flop. Calling leaves you in just such a shitty spot on the turn. You actually got a descent turn card but just think if the turn is a 9, T, J, or a K. Youre hating life even more

    I guess I probably fold the turn with 815 left but its hard to really say cuz Id never be in that tricky turn spot cuz Id have a) folded preflop, or b) folded or shoved post flop

    Actually, it wasn't my hand, it was the idiot who I was playing against who called the turn and sucked out on the river.  The worst part was I knew this moron had Ax with a shitty x.  Just wanted to see some people's view on what they would do in this scenario because the guy made absolute zero sense to me in the way he played this hand.

    The guy had whatever that adds up to in chips (1264), Everyone was pretty near 1500 in chips with nobody having more than a few hundred +/- the 1500.

    Was down to 129 chips after that and ended up 6th, so it was a double piss me off in one sitting.
