I'm actually discussing this very controversive with a friend.

I folded it, and SnGWiz said it also, but he said it's a push because you are in the blinds next hand.

Any comments?

I would have folded here also.

What about BB call? I think its good (I would call with any 2 here)

I have to say for me it depends on the table. If I know it's a tighter table then usual it's an insta push for me. If I know it's more lose ... tough decision ... but u are the super shorty and there's a big chance u'll have to defend ur BB with any2 in the next hand. Personally I avoid spots like this by not getting into them at all :P But the more I think about this the more I lean toward pushing this hand always in this spot. Also SnGW default ranges are crap so if u didn't play with the ranges on ur own don't trust it to be too right.


Depends on your image, if you've been pushing a lot, the BB might actualy call you with ATC, but if his bottom is A8, or even Ax and the SB alike, I think it's very profitable push.

Good BB should be calling ATC, but lot of people doesn't do that, so if you didn't annoy them with constant pushing previously, it's a push.

I'm probably folding, becouse I have a very loose image late game and calling ATC in the BB.

Hi all,

It depends on a couple things, correct. Your image, your style, the table, etc.

Personally I would opt to push this hand because I feel at this limit we have more fold equity than we should (ie. Nash underestimates our fold equity). Our inputs into SNGWizard should reflect this. At higher limits or in situations where both BU and BB are decent players, we should lean towards folding it just because the chances BU and BB are all-in the next hand is so high.
