Re: Call This Push?
Easy fold. Although you may have the best hand chances are you're looking at a coin flip, or perhaps you're dominated with ten or jacks. You still have plenty of chips to call off that much with nines. Plus someone behind you could wake up with a real hand. I'd much rather push with nines, than call off a big hand with them.

Re: Call This Push?
The pusher is a little too big to be pushing a huge range UTG, he's got like 15xBB. And you've still got 4 players left to act behind you. And it's for a non-insignificant portion of your stack. I think TT-QQ, AK is his most likely range. Easy fold to me unless you have a great read on this guy and a read that the guys behind you are real tight.

Re: Call This Push?
I'm probably folding but that's a strange over push of almost 20 BB. No reads I'm assuming? Without a read, I'm gonna fold.

[/ QUOTE ] Well, it sure didn't look like AA before you called. But his range was definitely ahead of you. JJ would probably be a call/iso push here. TT would be a head scratcher, probably a fold. QQ is an easy call/iso push.

Re: Call This Push?
i've seen alot of weaker players using this strat OOP.. they deny implied odds to small pairs, etc behind and maybe they get a call from QQ/KK/AK...
be wary...
