Simple preflop spot

As with the other one, one line answers are fine. BTN is unknown with $100 stack exactly, he waited for his blind and reloaded on the button. BB is a complete drooler with a 40BB effective stack, won't last him more than a couple of hands.

I open to $4 with TT, BTN makes it $14, BB coldcalls, I?

w/ the BB in the pot, the pot becomes protected, its highly unlikely BTN will attempt to bluff at this pot, i call, then play for BB's stack w/ any decent flop .... ie. 1 overcard, ideally no overcards. if ace falls i give up.

edit: call

if btn would be the drooler short and BB the $100, i would shove, since BB would have JJ or QQ exactly pretty often

call, positional advantage > equity of a push

Hm? We don't have position against the 3-bettor.

yeah but if 3bettor has an overpr, u have set value (cuz of dead money from BB), and if 3bettor has overcards, you are ahead ... its win/win

thought we had pos on both, but pos on the fish is still goot.

pushing only gets us called as a 4 to 1 dog

Yeah, I agree, just wanted to figure out what you meant.

calling is the best play, no other option really. just be careful postflop
