Default Re: (11$) Two small stacks all in, should I call?

I'm very confused as to how you have more 13% more equity than A9 in the first situation. that's completely against what I would have thought.

in all of them, either of them having one heart above J will decrease your equity and having 2 hearts, one above J will decrease it further. also if one of them has JJ or higher, ur fubarred and they may both have you dominated and you are dominated more than not.

I don't know, I'm very curious as to what the best move is now. I still vote fold until proven otherwise, but [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]


HOW ABOUT SOME EXPERT MATHEMATICIAN HELP HERE... ANYONE???

I'm behind A9 something like 53:47, but if I improve, I propably beat the lower PP also. My odds don't compared to HU situation in this scenario.

I would call just for the fun of it. If they both have an Ace, the odds are probably there for you. It's only $11 after all.

HOH Vol II, discussing heads up situations, puts AA only 78% (about 3:1) against JT suited. And that's the worst heads up odds JTs faces. Given their stack sizes, both opps might easily have pushed with any pair or any ace, in which case you are in much better shape. Considering that you are getting almost 3:1 for a call and can't lose more than about one-fifth of your sizeable stack, I vote for calling.

I'm glad that we're trying to figure out what is mathematically correct, and you advise calling just for kicks [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
