PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (3 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Hero (t4535)
Button (t6765)
SB (t700)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">SB raises to t700</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>.

Final Pot: t925

Top two here get an entry into PS Sunday $215 It ended up being a happy ending but this hand has been bothering me ever since.

Do I call with any two here?? And if you call whats the biggest stack he would have here where you would call?

Dear god I don't call with any 2, I fold any 2 except AA I push. Even this may be wrong. Your only objective here is to get 2nd, and to do this you need to distance yourself from the SB. Since you already have a huge lead and SB is circling the drain you really really really don't want to get involved with the big stack.

What the hell? Is this meant to be the SB raising or something? I don't understand... you sure as hell don't get involved with the button here.

Sorry. Convertor problems. I've edited this to show the SB as the raiser.

The hand should read "button folds, SB pushes for 700" is that right? I would fold, there will be pleanty of chances to bust the shorty and you don't want him doubling up off of your chips. Pot odds might be almost there but you really don't want to close the gap between you and him so I would fold. I would call him with 22+ J10+ but obviously this will be different next hand.

Correct. Thanks for taking the time to respond even though I seriously am lacking in hand converter skills.
