I've been thinking a lot about this hand, since I was in a similar situation against a super deep stack.
With his stack, he risks barely less than 5% of it calling the short-stack shove. I don't see why this is so bad, considering that short stacks in zoom willl shove super wide -- especially if they are short because they've just lost a big pot. A7s is 60% equity vs a random hand.
I don't think he gave you much credit for your shove, -- and why should he? He risks only 10% of his stack, and even if he puts you on JJ+, AQ+, he STILL has 25% equity in the pot.
KK in the situaion of 1 random hand and one hand with a range of
66+,A2s+,K6s+,Q8s+,J8s+,T8s+,A7o+,K9o+,QTo+,JTo (25%)
has only 52% equity.
I can't help thinking that although villain appears to be playing badly, he is crazy like a fox.
I don't play NL 2 Zoom often, but there is one guy I've marked who plays multiple tables, and I've never seen him w/ < 500 BB in his stack.
He plays relatively few hands, but when he shows something down, it is almost always a surprise. tbh, I think that most of his stack comes from people just fleeing the pot whenever he raises.
When somebody can get all of your stack, risking only 10% of his, then he is a force to be reckoned with.
Did you post this hand in the hand evaluation forum?
I would LOVE to hear what veriz has to say about the hand.
Why not post the hand there, then post a link in here so we can follow along.
