Could you give me a plausible range for villain where that's true?

one reason you might wanna fold is b/c ppl tend to play better when they have bigger stacks. so if you're wrong and you double him up, it could change the whole dynamic of the match.

obviously if you think your range is way ahead of his you should call, but if you're unsure, then that's one reason i'd advocate a fold.

lol, AK is a flip at worst (well excl. vs AA or KK), 88 is a flip as best.

i think calling this is bad. it's much closer if it goes 30- 110, arren, but this is a fold dude.

this is rly close with TT, fairly close with 99, and TT is prob a call and 99 is prob a fold, but they're the fence hands, this isn't close imo.

i think you dominate like never and 99-JJ is soooooooooo much of his range

i would fistpump with JJ+ AK, call with TT and question AQ

this is a fold, fo sho

whoa, seems backwards to me. with 20-70 arren, his range for minraising is much more likely to be polarized to strong hands and weak hands, whereas weak hands will nvr (or so rarely) shove obv. with 70 as the last bet he's makin gmore of an overbet, you'e getting less of a price-i think it's so much closer as 30-110 arrenen
