Calling when probably behind

    I was playing a .50/1 table on tribecca last night. I've got $290 at the time. It's a reasonably loose table and I'm playing far more aggressively than I normally would, which is working because I've almost tripled up inside an hour.

    I have AhAd on the BB. There's a raise to 5 and a call before me.

    These two are really loose and one of them is annoyed with me because I outflopped him with JJ, when I raised and he flat called with KK and it all went in when I made my set.

    He has 115, other guy has 100 odd.

    Back to the hand. It comes around to me and I make it 20. Both smooth call.

    flop(65 ish) Ac 10c 9C

    I'm first to act and not delighted with it. So I bet 35. First guy goes all in for a further 55. Other guy pushes his 70 odd also. It's 65 (30% of my stack) to call.

    What are people doing? Is it worth calling when you're probably behind?

    Anyway to cut a long story short, I called. The one I had ran in with previously has Qc Jc and the other has ATo.

    Turn is a 9 and I win.

    You have to call 60 to win 270. Automatic call regardless of what cards your opponents have.

    Definite call. Pot the flop btw, $35 is too small.

    yeah of course thats a flop you have 7outs on the flop (~28%) and another 3 on the turn (20%) if the it doesnt hit their first, you getting value here its a def call for me. 60-270 is about 22% so good call.
