Math's Right, Still Don't Want to Call

Michael Binger raised it up from the high-jack to 2,200 before the cut-off player moved in for 6,700. It was folded back around to Binger who seemed to know he was behind, had the right price to call just didn't want to. After battling internally he made the call with {9-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} and saw he was up against {A-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts}.

The board ran {K-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} to send the pot the other way and leave Binger with just 9,500.
