Default Re: $60s - 2 bubble hands

HoH III had some problems similar to the second one. IIRC he said you usually only want to call with AA or KK here (and maybe AKs?), since you're in good shape to make the money and the player that raised was the only one that can knock you out.

Personally, folding QQ here would be really hard for me.

ICM undervalues calling (severely) with QQ if the big stack is good but folding has to be terrible against just about everyone.

e: It wouldn't suprise me if it was +EV to call with AK as well

How does ICM undervalue calling with QQ here?

I instafold the first hand and call the 2nd.

i really wanted to call the second hand obv, but my time bank was running down while i was thinking/8tabling and whenever im down to my last 2-3 seconds i always hate to make quick decisions and usually end up folding [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

with these stacks i dont see how AK could be a call, and i dont think villain is 'good' enough for me to be certain hes pushing very wide. he hadnt been doing much bullying on the bubble that i can remember
