Call or fold? Late in MTT
Hi, I'm going to apologise up front for this not being converted properly. I tried using the flop turn river converter but it won't work for tournament hands [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] hopefully it's not too hard to decipher...
Down to the last 15 or so in a full tilt 90 player deep stack $5 MTT... Blinds are pretty big, I have no information on villain. Is this call correct based on pot odds against a random villain? Seat 1: IdunNO300 (6,406) Seat 2: zodaddy3 (30,575) Seat 4: steveysee (12,245) Seat 5: oneeyedpat (29,055) Seat 6: ninconvert (22,327) Seat 9: eaglepkg (24,230) IdunNO300 antes 150 zodaddy3 antes 150 steveysee antes 150 oneeyedpat antes 150 ninconvert antes 150 eaglepkg antes 150 zodaddy3 posts the small blind of 600 steveysee posts the big blind of 1,200 The button is in seat #1 *** HOLE CARDS *** Dealt to ninconvert [8d 8s] oneeyedpat folds ninconvert raises to 4,500 eaglepkg folds IdunNO300 folds zodaddy3 has 15 seconds left to act zodaddy3 folds steveysee raises to 12,095, and is all in ninconvert has 15 seconds left to act ninconvert calls 7,595 |

Re: Call or fold? Late in MTT
Yes, against a fairly tight range of AQ+ 99+ you are 35% and getting slightly over 2-1. Throwing in some weaker aces or other random hands makes this an easy call.
I don't know that I like the size of your opening raise, however. I think it is too big and commits too much of your stack. 3000-3600 looks about right. |

Re: Call or fold? Late in MTT
Given your preflop raise, you have to call the all-in. You won't like it, but you have to.
I'd probably raise less preflop. I like anywhere from 2.5x to 3.5x the BB. However, if you've been regularly raising about 4x BB, then there's no reason to stop doing that. |

Re: Call or fold? Late in MTT
Yeah I'd been raising more than 3x because of the antes. and getting quite a lot of folds. Do you think 2.5 and 3x BB work as well when antes get involved?
In the end I did call and felt like it was marginal but correct, glad to hear you guys agree because I certainly was not sure... |
