There's a lot of folds, but my 'gut' tells me to call...especially given the read that he likes to isolate. Certainly not an easy call, but one I would have made.

I think you have to call here. If you had a healthier stack, like button, it would get a little more interesting. Also I think you're not giving button enough credit for knowing CO is pushing a wide range. I think A8o+ could (should) easily be in buttons range here - what with the overlay he expects from the blinds.

But I will, when I'm back from work, try to follow the calculations. Didn't look to scary at first glance though, especially ignoring the splits. Thanks again!

Long time reader, first time poster and also the villain on the CO. My read was that UTG was pushing any two and that the blinds would only call with JJ+, AQo+. My question is what two hands would you come over the top with and are there any you'd just call with.

You should call this... I can see thinking about it here. But this is +EV I'm really sure about it.

It's not +EV.

I would be interested in reading your arguments. Are you applying other ranges than than Devin and Bill?

Not based on Devin's math.
