BB vs SB Battle $16
 

A hand vs a good 2+2er who is multi tabling a ton of tables.

I'm getting low and he has a big stack, because of this I think he is just about pushing any two cards.


PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t200 (4 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

CO (t6465)
Button (t2330)
SB (t3585)
Hero (t1120)

Preflop: Hero is in BB with 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>, <font color="red">SB raises to t3585 (All-in)</font>

can I call this?

Re: BB vs SB Battle $16
 

I think you can call this..less than 5BB and even if he's got AK you've got a few draws/outs here. I don't see how folding would do anything especially if that 1120 is before your 200 BB is deducted (not sure on converters)

The call would be 920 to win 1320.

Is this an 18 man (ITM) or 9 man (bubble)?

Either way, you're short stacked here. You may not get a better spot to call/raise in the next few orbits. You could wait out and try to get someone else to bust, but I just don't play that way.

Re: BB vs SB Battle $16
 

If you think he is on ATC then its a snap call, especially with antes. ALso since you are half the second stack on the bubble and with very little FE in future orbits I really dont mind taking a shot at doubling here

9 man pre antes I believe.

Looks like a call (especially if he will tighten up his push range against you in the future).
