Easy fold. You have a weak hand that's a coinflip at best against even the worst pushing ranges, and you're crippled if/when you lose.

wrong. Plz read the FAQ or something b4 posting advice. Its anything but an easy fold. Reads would help. If hes pushing 25% its +.1%. If you think hes pushing any more than that its a call.

I know the math of the hand. I just think it is interesting to look at and think its close but then to plug it in and really see the numbers.

i figured you did, the #s were mostly for him and others reading. i wasnt really sure about your posting of the hand tho i admit, just didnt want the last response on here to be wrong in case someone reads it that doesnt know its close.

Can you please post a read? It's probably a call either way.

Upon reexamining the hand, you're right. Just formatted and don't have SnGPT on here yet. Back to studying, I guess.

I don't think this hand really needs a read. I guess the point of posting it was that on the surface it may appear to be close until you do the math and consider the antes and it becomes a clear call. Just trying to provoke some thought.

Yeah it is +3.6 vs 60% and +4.3 vs 75%. You have to limit the range to 22% before it is breakeven.
