Question about calling raise with POCKET 10's
Ok here is what happened to me in a LIVE game last night. It was me and 3 opponents, and I was dealt 10 10 in early pos. I had about an average chip stack, enough to not be in too much trouble but not enough to play speculative hands. I wanted to see the flop as cheaply as possible knowing this could be a trap hand and I was pretty sure that if I raised I would get called by at least one player, and with 5 cards to come there was obviously a lot that could beat me, and it would basically be one big guessing game at that point. Blinds were at 200, and I called.
The player one person behind me raises another 200 PRE FLOP, so now I only need 200 more to call, and already have 200 in the pot, HOWEVER now I am in a risky situation. He has position on me. I have pocket 10's.
My question is this. Should I just fold this hand, or call the min. raise of 200 out of position? Keep in mind I only had about an average stack and should have not been taking risks. I am guessing this was a time to calculate POT ODDS. What would it take to make this a legit call? Or would this be more legit to fold?
