$16: AQ (3 hands)

[Dr_Jeckyl_00]

I think that I should have folded to the raise, even though a shorter stack is making the move, it is not worth calling here since blinds are still so small, right?

1. Yuk, but fine. A lot of times I'll just call in this spot PF, but I'm in the minority on that.

2. Folding is fine. I could also make a case for calling or shoving depending on reads.

3. Standard.

[RexWoo]

1. This is BvB. Usually your crushing his range except maybe with a specific read.

2. I call here

3. Looks good depending on UTG. If he is solid, I fold. If he is standard, I push.

[mondonman]

#1 readless you´re crushing his range. call.

#2 I may find a call here with that stack, but basically I like the fold.

#3 get it in

[KPL]

1 In a BvB situation, his range is often huge, because he's ore likely to think that you're FOS. Also, he's short and more likely making a move. Calling looks fine.

2 I'm folding this almost all of the time. Raise from EP, you're OOP, and a hand that may be dominatet.

3 Looks good

What is BvB?

[badkins6]

1. Looks good

2. I always call here, just because he's utg doesn't mean he's got QQ+, this could be many hands that you beat. Also, by calling his raise what are you trying to hit? If anythiing i'd worried about an A hitting on the flop where you could be dominated.

3. Looks good

[FeNeF]

#1 is a sucky spot. I don't think many people are going to be pushing here without a hand, the question is if they are shoving AT and stuff. Against an aggressive 2+2er or a LAG idiot I call, against a nitty multitabler or a callstation I fold. Readless flip a coin.

#2 calling is bad. Push or fold, and don't push. Good fold.

#3 is probably good pending reads.

[RexWoo]

BvB = Blind vs Blind

Please explain me why !

It cost us 100 of 3000ish stack, we have AQ + really correct odds. So why is calling "bad" ?
