If big stack has been pushing any 2, then it looks like a call.

[onlinebeginner]

based on reads you can get a general range

look at bigstacks range
then look at small stacks range
pokerstove them against 99


do calculations.... it's definately close especially given the blind levels and other stack sizes

[Little John]

Pay attention to henk on the bubble. He for sure open pushes any two with the big stack and almost always open pushes L8+ if all four stacks are fairly even. So yes, call this in a second. Call even if shorty folds.

The shorty calls from Button, he must have somethig decent too. Losing to small stack but winning vs big stack puts you around your starting stack.

Tough one... Would it be an easier decision with more or less chips?

I call with 5,000 chips...am I crazy?

thanks for the feedbags guys.

i think this is a much clearer call than i originally thought. i was up against henkk's rags (Ah7h) and AsTs so i was in quite good shape. the flop brought a ten but i rivered a flush and went into the money with a nice chiplead.

if the shortstack folds its a bit tougher but i think i still call. if i had 5k in chips i'm not sure, probably call.

I fold here.
