Re: $114 turbo stars#1- big pair
i would fold because its the 114$ level. Is any one doing this with pocket 10s-2s at this level?

I fold, sure he might turn over 99-TT/AK, however even if you put 99+/AKo+ in his hand range you're still a 48/52 dog. If you add in AQo/AQs, it's still 50/50, so I would fold.

Re: $114 turbo stars#1- big pair
i would call here pretty quickly. you're giving bb way too much credit if you fold this.

[/ QUOTE ] wow, that's so out of left field, and you're calling me an ass? The mirror works both ways buddy. Barring a read, I don't think this is a easy call since you're calling 1480 more to win 1780 so roughly 1.2 to 1. Against a hand range of 99+/AQo+ you're about a 50.2/49.8 favorite. If you narrow it down to TT+/AKo+, you're a 43/57 dog (1.3 to 1 dog) I guess the final answer is.. if you don't care about variance, make the call. If you do, fold. Honestly, the difference is so minimal, it's a moot issue. No one will fault you for doing one or the other.

By my calculations its 1485 into 2205. Easy call [/ QUOTE ] you really can't add sb stack into calculations.. But you're right it is 2085 and not 1785, like I proclaimed, however 1485 into 2085 is still 1.4 to 1.. I guess it turns more into a call, but it's not an easy call and reads on villian does help!
