Since it's impossible to face a bet and be getting a price worse than 1:1, whenever I call I expect to have the worst hand more than half of the time unless the bet is all in. For example: the pot is $8, opponent bets $1, I'm getting 9:1 so I call if I think I have the best hand 1/10 times. Getting your money in behind is a good thing sometimes.
