Default Tough spot with 99 in stuper

75 or so left and I'm a little below avg.


PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t1200 (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

MP2 (t11459)
MP3 (t33364)
CO (t36574)
Button (t61222)
SB (t82368)
BB (t62412)
UTG (t22146)
UTG+1 (t65167)
Hero (t32192)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t3600</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises to t11399</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, BB calls t10199, Hero ??

At this point the pot has about 29k and I've got about the same behind. Is this an insta shove??

Cold caller had appeared competent and was running 15/11 over 80ish hands. Wouldn't the fact that he just cold calls weight his range more heavily towards AA,KK?

After some thought I ended up folding and cold caller showed up with AQs. Flop was 7,9,10. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

The reason I posted this hand is I often stuggle with spots like this late in tournaments. As was the case with this hand I often times narrow people's ranges too much and find folds that probably aren't.

I don't think you're a favorite over either of their ranges. Yeah sometimes you're against AK and AQ but on the whole this is a good fold.

Yeah. Tough spot- but I think you have to fold. Big reraise and a call...you don't have that many chips invested in this hand. I think you can get away from it.

I also imagine you have a tight image as usual, which makes their plays even stronger.

pretty easy fold imo, you ought to be crushed by BBs range, im v surprised it includes AQ. take a note or something, but in general, i think you are way behind and an iso will not be successful, sos id fold.
