$16: AJo bubble call

Finnisher · #1 03-02-2007, 08:27 PM

CO is spacegravy and the other two are solid. I've been folding since February. AJs, AQ?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t200 with t25 antes (4 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

CO (t2645)
Button (t4015)
SB (t5015)
Hero (t1825)

Preflop: Hero is in BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
CO raises to t2620 (All-in), Button folds, SB folds, Hero?

Of course, I prefer open-shoving with this over calling. If he's as bad as your read suggests, the call's OK. AQ would be an easy call against this read.

Hmm this is tough but I don't know how the typical $16 plays. Calling is like -0.7% against the top 15% and +0.7% against the top 20%. Seems pretty close to me.

Bet a pound to a penny this is 88+, ATs+, AJo+, KQs

I think it's a fold to Spacegravy.

AJ fold, AQ I call. Against a donk who will push any ace from this position I probably call.

I'm pretty sure it's not AA/KK. But even with that it's probably -EV to call, close tho. If I fold I'll be down to t1600 and he's up to t3000 and I don't think anyone of the others will donk off before I'm out. I'm not sure it's bad enough to call tho, as long as I could get a card over 8 at some point before my stack shrinks [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
