Definitely looks like a fold or shove. Pony is committed and shoving anything checked to him postflop so if you feel like you are ahead here then ship it and try to squeeze out the SB.

Fold. ICM.


If anyone asks for the math involved, die.


Or ask Sherman to post 5 pages that I refuse to work out. Fold though, seriously.

Easy fold, Ham. You are RRing with AJs here because you want a race 45/55 or WB? If you call, you don't hit enough, you are OOP, you are getting 3:1 on your money with 5 cards left, not three, your playing post flop for at least half your stack.
