Getting slightly more than 3:1 and you're probably slightly ahead of both ranges.

Am I missing something here?? Hero has an M of 1.5, button has an M of 1.5....so he's probably pushing almost anything. Plus the payout structure....isn't this a crazy easy call??

Re: 4 players left facing all-in and call with 99
 

Noone has gotten out of line. Usually I think it was an easy call but a tell I had on SB told me he had a big hand. Is there any way I could get away from this?

Re: 4 players left facing all-in and call with 99
 

Couldn't this be a place where cEV <> $EV? But I probably call here anyway, because I don't care about 3rd, I want 1st and winning this pot gives me a good chance to get that.

No. However, you could fold and hope SB beats Button and you have doubled your +$EV by folding. If you do fold, don't tell the table about it.

Maybe, but you are running out of hands to play w/ your stack.

How would folding give you a better shot at 3rd?? Then button would have almost 17K, you would have 6K and the other 2 would have 35K. I'd call here with any 2 cards....

Oh sorry....I didn't see that SB called.

Forget my earlier post [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I would still call here.....
