Default Re: ($60t) shortie pushes on bubble, i want in

Yep, you do want BB's help, so no pushing here. Without doing the calcs I'd say it's close between calling and folding, shortie would have to be on a big range (including K2+) to call though.

LOL. What are you talking about? Why isn't the range any ace, any pair, any two broadway not enough? If you know villain is only pushing any pair + any ace, then you could think that folding is close/not enough.

There is the potential for a huge equity transfer here. Not thinking about these spots is a huge leak. Certainly BB should call, but his motives are clear, in that he is waiting for a hand.

Now if you make the decision to play (which I'm specifically not commenting on)what makes this the difference between a call and a shove is if BB is a donkey, IMO, if he's a donkey, it's a shove. Last thing we want is someone who is going to bluff into a dry side pot, or bet middle pair, essentially committing us to only seeing 3 cards instead of 5.
