Default Final 2 Tables Calling Range Question


sorry couldnt find a working converter. i had been very aggressive and the villian is the only one who played back at me. i had opened the last 3 pots uncontested and this hand came up. I gave him a range of any ace, pair or any two broadways. What is my calling range and is my range appropriate? Note:this pot is for the CL if I call.

Table '51838345 129' 9-max Seat #4 is the button
Seat 1: phita45 (280798 in chips)
Seat 2: Steroid Boy (207675 in chips)
Seat 3: smokey river (239206 in chips)
Seat 4: CholiB (149670 in chips)
Seat 6: Max0million (71640 in chips)
Seat 7: matindel (185265 in chips)
Seat 8: mattthered87 (223336 in chips)
Seat 9: kidcount (262905 in chips)
phita45: posts the ante 600

Default Re: Final 2 Tables Calling Range Question

This sucks, but it's something like: JJ+, (AK if you want to gamble.) Why? Coz making the FT is so +$EV, that you need to concentrate on that and forget about winning chips at this early stage of what is now a 2 table SNG with an outrageously steep payout structure. I believe that now is the time to play this like an STT where there are 9 players left with blinds at 100/200A. ie aggressive theft, but fold to reraises unless you have a high premium hand. Shove into shortstacks who don't want to bubble.
