Terrible call imo... he's second in chips so you two shouldn't really be getting too involved together... I think I would go for AK+ JJ+ here... AJo is just a bad call... you can almost fold into the money here... so calling here with marginal hand like AJo is seriously -ev...

I btw love his K5o shove... he knows you can't call him cept with top few hands :P

agree... with hlynkinn. Think i call AQs AK 1010+


i think is a pretty good call. Because the blinds are so huge, the range to shove on the Sb is any two cards, so i think the call is correct. U only got 5bb instead, u cannot wait so much. But the fact we are on the bubble and we can be eliminated, we can skip this hand and calling AQ+ at least.

ICM says that the villain should push any two here and hero should call with 66+ A9s+ ATo+ KJs+ so I think the call was good here if he really is pushing any two.


Well call is if you play to win fold is if you play to get into money. Is always hard decision no doubt about it.

I think it is an easy fold. BTN is going probably going down next round, and you can steal blinds from CO in next hand. No need to get involved in such a dangerous situation.

mh if we let SB take our blind and BTN folds the next hand then i´m pretty sure that SB will push the next hand as well ^^

so we can call if he is pushing more than ~70%. and he should push 100% imo. but we can´t be sure about his range and as you can see our profit is quite small if he is pushing looser but our losses are very high if he pushes tighter... so i opt for the fold :)

Hi all,

Thanks frzl for the SNGWiz analysis! In this case even if we know villain is pushing any two, we should still fold. The edge for calling is absolutely minimal, and because we're second in chips here on the BUBBLE, we can be given way better spots if we just fold, and push first in. So fold it and call with AQ+, 88+


Ty for the analisis
