Default Re: Stars 109 FO. 7 before the money.

Thanks, now i know pretty much for sure i should have folded.
I eventually called, and it was more an emotional call than anything else i think, but borderline.
I knew MP2 would shove anything pretty, it was his 7th shove in few hands where he picked up the blinds preflop.
I didn't have a chance yet to steal the blinds, as when everything was folded to me i had no outs to steal with. My stack was 27k at one point, and it dwindled down by the laggy table. just got pushed on every raisable hand.

i finally looked down on a decent suited hand, where i had decent potodds aswell. MP2 was pushing extremely light in my eyes. I just prayed CO was reshoving with a good pair and i could face a flip.

Nothing like that at all
MP2 flipped open J7o
CO flipped open ATs and luckboxed two tens on the flop

so mp2s range was even worse than assumed, CO made that read aswell and had a good isolation hand to reshove with.

Just an emotional call by me, but i don't like to fold to the money aswell and get shortstacked there.

But with 13BB i might have gotten a few spots in still.

seems like you are a little results oriented about your call.

I don't see how this is close to a call, are we seriously considering an overcall with 13bbs after a shove and a reshove? just checking

seems like OP made a good borderline call based on his read. Since the pusher was likely stealing on the bubble, both the push and call were suspect. The hands showed down by both players were so weak that the call seems obviously correct.

I like this call given the info on how frequent the first guy is shoving.

Guess it depends on SB's range for calling here. Best case scenario they have AJ and 99 type hand... But honestly is it worth it? I say fold but maybe thats a little nitty of me. I tend to play way too tight towards the bubbles of these things
