Default FTP $24 - tempted by the 99s

What ya'll think? The villain is like 35/7 after about 80 hands. Loves to min-raise. Do I just call or is push a-ok?


Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t100/t200
8 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t1490
UTG+1: t4240
MP1: t560
MP2: t1110
CO: t760
Hero: t1820
SB: t1660
BB: t1860

Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is Button with 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
3 folds, <font color="#cc0000">MP2 raises to t400</font>, CO folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero ??</font>

I would fold. You have no FE at all and are probably not ahead of his range.

wow this is horrible to fold (and pointless to just call). just cause villain raises only 7% DOES NOT mean its the top 7%. most donks like this with 30+ vpips dont raise any of the top 5% hands. This is the easiest push ever.

While you would think that you SHOULDNT have any FE here, you actually have a tiny amount as donks like this are usually clueless to pot odds and if he feels weak enough could easily still fold.
