I'm not sure what the question is, but this is a very very easy call from where I stand.

I'm inclined to calling here. I doubt I'd push my aces if I was the villain, so you're really looking at prob 70/30 edge if he has an ace. Do you get a better chance to get your money in?
As an aside, I'm just starting to add my thoughts to questions, so be gentle with me! [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] |

[/ QUOTE ] I am referring to the fact that certainly more information is available than this. For example, are all players playing optimally (folding when the shorty shoves). If so, it may be best to fold here and keep open shoving yourself. Especially if the short stack isn't playing optimally (i.e. isn't shoving enough himself). I'd probably call in this situation too, but I'm not sure it is right. |

You push Aces here, because shorty should be pushing a wide range. So anything other than a push would be suspicious. However, I still call. |

Given that neither of the two big stacks can call loosely like they could if they had humongous lead, your current edge, which I estimate to be 75-25 over his pushing range, is much better than your chances of outlasting the shortie by just staying afloat and waiting for him to bust. |
