I think it was in nicks coaching about making a EV- call to gain chip lead which becomes very EV+. i infact won this sng and I reckon it is down to this call.

your thoughts?

i think it's a fine call. his range should be something like top 70% here, so it's not even that -$EV.

mh imo it´s pretty close but i tend to fold. we are quite crippled after this but we could still have at least a bit of fold equity.
he should be pushing really wide but who knows if he really is ? which buy in lvl is this hand from ?

i don´t know if this is the right situation to make such a -ev call. where is nik when you need him ?

I wouldn't call this with such a trash hand, even so it isn't horrible I don't like it witg the worst hands.
