This is so gross. If you give him a range of TT+/AKo+ you're 34.3%

If you take TT out your 32%.

Let's call your equity about an even 33%, meaning you need 2 to 1.

You're obv getting it in pre so theres 3200+800+11793+800+600= 17193 with 8593 to call. Looks super close to me.

can you raise off that much preflop and then fold? Calling announces you dont have a great hand and how could you possibly just call off that much more of your stack. I would push and hope he doesnt have me dominated becasue theres no way you can just give up that much of your stack. Like the other person said just push pre or raise a little smaller. "Never raise an amount that leaves you unsure of how to react to a reraise."

second lowest at the table. with a raise like that it was all going in the middle anyway. 6 handed i wouldve pushed all in to begin with. bonds right but shark made a great point with that quote. ide def. push pre at this point.

Sick spot because the SB raise just about almost always is a huge hand, like JJ+, AKo. I think we can even weigh AK less because most people will make a larger re-raise AK in this spot if they decide to re-raise imo. It's close, and I HATE raise-folding with your stack, but this might be one of the few spots it's correct to do so.

thats pretty gross

your 4bb raise is beastly and for him to make a small ass raise over that is pretty damn strong.

i guess i can find a fold but i dont like your raise size here

I don't think you can get away from this. I would maybe try and raise to more like 2600ish first. Just a nasty spot
