Default Re: $44 6max on Stars: weird spot with 66

I think this is a fold, and for me it's not close.

The read is irrelevant here, cause it tells us only BB limps too much, but this situation is completely different.

See it from the BB's view - there is an EP-raiser, a shortstack that comes over and he flat-calls giving us irresistable odds - this indicates a high PP maybe AK for me.

With a push BB gets pot odds of 1:1,7 - so there are two possibilities

1.) he is a super-loose player (going with your read) - than he will not fold and 66 don't play good multiway (except both player interfere with something like AK,AQ)

2.) he knows what he does - then he should have a very good hand and calls.

Ok first post but keen to learn so here goes.

Why fold? if your reasoning to fold is bb has high pp say kk or aa then surely calling 900 odd in to a 3000 pot in the hope of hitting a 6 and stacking off bb who has 5100 behind makes it profitable.(and all-ins stack too) Its not as if op is short stacked.

I'd fold, BB seems loose enough to call with hands we're trying to fold out and 66 plays badly multiway.

If you play for a set, you should make sure, that you can get about 12x your investment, and therefore the stack-sizes are too low here.
