bob (2 years ago) Nice answer. Absolutely agree. It's the people behind you that are the scariest.

edwin's Answer: fold

First your hand is not a truely suited connector. There's much less chance of making a straigt with eight-six holding than with two consecutive cards like eight-seven. In addition, these are low cards rather than high ones.
The three players yet to act and the one already in are all pressured to make a move because of their chip size. If one of them decides to move all in, you'll have to throw away your hand.
