Hey,

I run this hand in sng wizard and It's really a easy fold into ITM and I would fold A2s even if the villain raised all-in with 70% of his range.
In my understanding I should fold because there were a short stack and play here just premium hands against cheap leader.

Please help me to improve! Despite I made 2 pairs the good move was move preflop!

SB: 6,222 (20.7 bb)
Hero (BB): 4,379 (14.6 bb)
BTN: 2,899 (9.7 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 2♦: A♦:
BTN folds, SB raises to 6,197 and is all-in, Hero calls 4,054 and is all-in

Flop: (8,783) Q♠: A♥: 2♠: (2 players, 2 are all-in)

It depends how he is playing but this hand you have to fold, especially being the mid stack. If he was more agressive you could call with a little more than premium hands, ATs or A9s

Cumps ;)

A2s looks like an easy fold on the bubble. Even if you think he shoves any 2 here what’s unlikely is in a 50c I wouldn’t take the risk.

I agree as this is an unecessary risk you are putting yourself into equity wise. Yes you might have a good hand, but you have to look at the tournament not the hand only. I would only consider this if SB was abusing heavily his CL.

You have a clear short stack and the the blinds are high, so there is no reason to gamble here - especially on the calling side.
