Default ($33) Overpair nuttiness

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t150 (5 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

Hero (t3560)
CO (t3175)
Button (t520)
SB (t2435)
BB (t3810)

Preflop: Hero is in UTG with T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="red">Hero raises to t375</font>, CO calls t375, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>, SB calls t300, <font color="gray">BB folds</font>

Flop: (t1275) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (3 players)
SB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets t750</font>, <font color="red">CO raises to t2800 (All-in)</font>, SB calls t2060 (All-in),

CO is a callstation, but hasn't raised much. SB seems pretty solid.

[censored] spot. But you have to call.
The reason for that is simply that you have a side pot with CO, who you figure to be ahead of. And you`re getting monster-odds on your call. Although you`re likely behind, folding is not an option here. And there`s still a decent chance that you have SB dominated.
Call.

wtf. No. You're getting like what, 3-1, 3.5-1, whatever.

Folding leaves you with 2435 which is plenty to work with. If CO wins you're obviously on the bubble, which is great considering the button has such a small stack. Even if SB wins you'll have one stack of 500 and one stack of 750, which is a good spot to be in.

It may feel like a bummer, but you gotta be able to fold this.
