No-Limit Hold'em Tournament, 100/200 Blinds (5 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

SB (t4580)
Hero (BB) (t2649)
UTG (t2155)
MP (t885)
Button (t3231)

Hero's M: 8.83

Preflop: Hero is BB with K, A
1 fold, MP bets t885 (All-In), Button raises t3231 (All-In), 1 fold, Hero calls t2449 (All-In)

Flop: (t6283) 7, 2, 4 (3 players, 3 all-in)

Turn: (t6283) 5 (3 players, 3 all-in)

River: (t6283) 10 (3 players, 3 all-in)

Total pot: t6283

Okay, my options: fold and wait for a better spot where I'm first in and facing obviously less resistance, or call here hoping I have the better hand ?

Problem is if I fold then okey, one guy busts out, then I look for good spots to attack, but I've a pretty damn good hand and I shouldn't be missing out on certain situations.

Both villains are multi-tablers and seem solid more or less.

the bad thing is that BU has you covered...

If I had more than him I would push...

I just dont know what to do here...If you think that he isolates loose than I would push

Hi all,

We're effectively on the bubble here. I fold. It's kind of close though as there are no real shortstacks on the bubble with us. Probably JJ+ spot, maaaaaaybe AKs is a call.

I think this is a fairly close spot. If you put CO on about 45%, BU would have to shove like 17% for us to call. Now, this is not totally impossible, but given that BU is risking quite a bit of chips by iso-shoving I think his range is more weighted towards stronger hands. A big problem is if he's only a little tighter than that calling gets really bad pretty fast (however, if he's looser it's getting very +EV very fast, but that's just not very likely given your reads.) I'd put BU on a range of like 10-12%, in which case this is a JJ+ spot.

Well, BU flipped over 88 - the same hand he called me with 15 hands prior to this one. Not sure if one such action can be good enough a read for us to call here per se.
