If you have to call $4 into a $16 pot, then you're getting 4-1 on your money. What this means is if you win slightly more than 1 out of 4 times you call, you'll make money by calling.

"Priced in", is a term which respects the long term nature of poker. Your job at the table is to make positive expected value plays. If making a play makes you money long term, then it is correct to make it.

Stop folding for small bets if you think there's a chance you will win the hand that is greater than the percentage of the pot you have to call.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.
