Im am folding here.

You have 17 BBs left, and if you lose this, your done for.

Maybe if he was shoving with so many big blinds left over and over, I could call figuring I am
ahead here. But I can't see him shoving anything that you are ahead of.

And if it is a flip, It is not worth it IMO to flip for your stack when everyone has the same average
stacksize of 16-17BBs.

Just checked with ICM trainer and it says you can call with TT+ AKs

I call but it's close. Definatly make a note on this player if he's a regular.


I tanked for a while here. Why is he pushing when normal (and even smaller) raises were being respected by all of us? I put him on a smaller pair or A-rag. My read was dead on: A-2, so he donked out. Should I trust my reads or simply play it safe?

With all the stacks allmost the same this is an easy fold for me

? does not make sense at all, stacks all the same means you have more reason to call ^^

Hi all,

I agree with this. If we simply give our opponent a range which is top x% we can fold here, but if we make the assumption (and it's a pretty good assumption) that he doesn't shove 88+ here (rather raises), then our 99 becomes a much easier/better call.
