[Closed] $6.50, calling shorty's shove with 86s

I'm easily folding against unknown, matter of fact there are only like 3-4 regulars on my tables I have a good enough read on to call here (and I doubt them pushing that loose into me).

Your odds are good, but calling and loosing makes you loose a lot of FE in an important stage. Pushing >> calling, so I fold this vs unknown.

I agree, he may be desperate and just waiting for a chance to be first in to shove,
but with myself being so low in chips, I would need better to call.

66+, ATos+ KQos+ A6s+

Hi all,

I would call this. If we do call and lose we will lose a chunk of FE but still have a bit (625 or just over 4BB after the SB passes us). So I make the odds-call.

Would this be an example of gigabet's dilemma? I take SB is alone in the highest group of stack sizes, then the second group has UTG, UTG+1 and BTN, while I am group 3 and shortstack is a 4th group. If I call and win, I reach the 2nd group, while if I call and lose, CO joins my group, but my stack size compared to the 2 higher groups doesn't get THAT worse than it already is.

350 to call is more then 1/4th of hero's stack, so the gigabet dilemma doesn't really apply here.
Infact it rarely applies on low stakes sng's (<50$ ? not sure myself, haven't reached that buy-in lvl), perhaps it's more usefull in MTT's.

It's not a gigabet dilemma because with or without these 500 chips we still do not have anywhere near as many chips as the 4th place player.
