Stars $20 Rebuy: Pocket 9\'s facing overshove
Villain is a complete unknown, just moved to my table. We're in the money, final 3 tables. What is your thought process here?

Villain's Range is pretty wide given his stack size. Could be a big A, weak A soooted, or any pocket pairs except AA/KK.
Without a specific read, I probably fold. |

I would put villain on a hand like AJ-AK or pk pairs 5-8. Usually people do this with hands that are difficult to play postflop if they miss. I would call this to put yourself in position to bully the final table bubble

[/ QUOTE ] if his range is wide, why do you want to fold? against the range you gave, we're 60% to win. op, i'm assuming everyone folded to you after his shove? i'd reshove to isolate against the blinds since they'll tighten up their range a bit and you can be heads up against the short stack. with the overlay from the blinds and antes, you need 45.6% for it to breakeven, and i really doubt that an unkown 22r villain is shoving 12bb tight enough for you to fold 99. the fact that's he's utg+1 has a bit of merit, but i still think that this is pretty easy iso shove. |
