Titan Poker Brisbane 200/400, hand converted by the iPoker Converter at Talking-Poker

saw flop | saw showdown

Button Button (1860)
SB (9720)
BB Hero (3420)

Preflop: Hero is in the BB with 8♦ A♦
Button raises to 1860, 1 fold, Hero calls 1460.

I'm not so sure about this hand, since it's (If i'm not mistaken) like the 4th time villain pushed in the entire sng. Pretty tight player. How loose does he have to shove to make this call profitable?

there is always a bigger fish

looks like, an easy call for me. But i dont know the exact range he have to push to make this profitable. But againts an OK (normal player) is still a good call

I agree with this. Even with your reads that he's tight (from a small sample), I would still call this because A8s is just so good :). He needs to push less than 15% (!!!!!!) to make a call here unprofitable.
