JJ facing a push and isolation- $50
 

The pusher hasn't played a hand in the 4 orbits or so I have played at the table. The re-raiser is a 2+2er, he has been playing pretty solid from what I've seen.

If MP1's range is 66+ A10o+ and MP3's is 99+ AQo+ you have 40 percent equity, which would make this an easy call. I've never played that high, though, so I don't know if those ranges are reasonable.

I'd fold the JJ... If 2 players went AI before you, your likely up against AQs+, QQ+. One of them probably has the two high cards, Ax and the other has a high pocket pair QQ, KK, AA... Your behind from the beginning...

Instamuck baby.
Up against at least one overpair, gotta be.
Prolly JJ, KK and AK with a bullet on the river. Mmmm makes me feel all warm inside.

to shallow to fold JJ here..stick it in

Re: JJ facing a push and isolation- $50
 

Folding JJ with this stack is horrible.

Villian could have TT or AK, or maybe even a lower pair, or AQ. Stick it in and hope for the best.

This might be a closer decision if you had 20 bbs, but I doubt it.

I suck at reading HH´s, didn´t even notice how shallow you were. Yah then I stick it in, but I´m hating it. Don´t really agree on 20 bbs though, then I would lean towards fold. 30 bbs and up I do instamuck.

LOL at those saying you should fold! Your M is what? Like 5.5 or something? You have a decent chance to tripple your stack, folding is ridiculous.

Totally agree, I mean I know it's semi-standard to fold JJ when faced with a raise and a 3bet, but stack sizes are everything here. I actually think the ranges quoted earlier are a little tight and we still have 40% equity. Stick it in and fist pump when it's double AK.

They both have AK and you have &gt;70% equity, CALL! [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Seriously, lots of times you'll see Ax vs AQ in this spot.
I'll go on record as saying that I folded JJ with 5 bbs once and was right to do so, but this looks like a call to me.
