tough call, but I feel like you have to call. I feel like your up against the classic AK.

i think with 10 BB there isn't a player in the world who is good enough to pass up this edge

It doesn't matter how good Thayer is, it matters how retarded his opponents are. If they're bad enough such that shorty's really really likely to bust out without his help, then he doesn't need to call here.

[/ QUOTE ]

Some of the players did strike me as bad. For instance, the SB to my BB last 5 rounds had completed the blind and then folded to my push. He seemed pretty retarded. Also the 2 bigger stacks were recently involved in around a 10k pot with no showdown which made no sense to me.

Basically all I was saying is that if they're all being really ridiculously wild, this is a fold.

Anyone saying this is DEFINITELY ZOMG A CALL. Is so completely wrong. This is entirely dependant upon table conditions.

i think that if the big stacks are gonna call too loose on future hands, you should probably call, because you're an a significant disadvantage having to push into them while the other shortstack gets to push into you.

If the big stacks are basically going to fold in then fold because you will get a greater number of correct shove spots than the other shortstack is likely to take.

I agree that Thayer's chance of getting a seat if he folds is fairly close, on one side or the other, to the ~75% equity he has in the pot.

edit: looks like i misread the order of the stacks. i thought it was thayer, big, big, short...

now i'm not sure.
