in a very similar situation i called an allin with aj and he showed down qq. i am still not sure if my call was correct. its pretty close, and depends on the range of raisers hands but I don't think a call is terrible at all.

I call this because he can easily be opening hands you're ahead of, especially this deep in a tournament 7 handed. If he has AJ+ or TT+, rough luck.

Raiser was the tournament leader and had been playing aggressively. Most hands were being brought in for raises. I figured I was even with his range but had significant pot odds, so I called.

You're so short I dont think you have much choice, you're pretty much all in on your BB so you've only got a few hands, doubtful your gonna see better than AT. Call and hope for live cards.

Ya I call there as well with at now that i think about it. Its just not a comfortable place to be in. I had to call off my aj from ep which made it harder, nine handed.

This seems like a really easy call from here.

You're twice as short as the other short stack. Little chance of outlasting anyone else. I think you have to make this call.
