unless CO has been the biggest nit in the world i instacall

Re: icm tells me to call but i dont like it (15+1)
 

It's close. Obviously would depend on reads. He won't be super wide here. He does have a hand he's willing to play for stacks with, when he could be making a standard raise.

I think it's probably a fold. But again, reads are important in poker.

remember u can usually subtract AA, KK, QQ from peoples ranges here

How the hell is this a call ?

How does ICM tell you that this is a call ? You put him on 20% or something ?

Fold, I really do not think this is the spot to call off. Yeah he can have any pair, unlikely lower than 55, but so many more times overcards; we're flipping against his range. Unless he's doing that all the time there's no need to get involved there. Have TT to call, if I read correctly that this is 100/200.

thats exactly my point apathy
at this level (remember its a 15$) i have seen people do that with any pair and crap like A5s and A8o

Re: icm tells me to call but i dont like it (15+1)
 

I think he has like 77-JJ, AJ-AK. So I would probably fold this and call with tens.

Re: icm tells me to call but i dont like it (15+1)
 

I think this is a pretty easy call. He has an underpair or hand such as A6s way more often than people think.

Re: icm tells me to call but i dont like it (15+1)
 

If I folded this I would sit there for the next few rounds, being blinded out, looking at all the 74o and various other crap hands I'm getting and wishing I had played my nines.

But don't listen to me, I don't even know what ICM does.

Read dependent.
