$6.50 Stars Turbo - Bubble Call

[kindling]

I think A7s is good enough to call the short stack push with these blinds. I'm short stack if I fold. Should I wait for better situation?


PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t600 (4 handed) internettexasholdem.com

Hero (t2495)

Tough spot, but you gotta call.

u should be way ahead of his range and you have him covered and you dont want to be the short stack

shove it

Turbo call. I'd also call with a lot of hands worse than A7o - FWIW.

Thanks all. It sounds like everyone agrees on the call. I didn't like any option here, but I think the call has good odds.

Results: I called, he showed QTo, and flopped his T. So I was ahead, but not for long.

Regards,

Why not? He has only 2.5bb and is desperate, so his pushing range is really big here. And when I say "really", I mean it. Plus, you have an ace with a medium kicker and it's suited, so you're definitely crushing SB's range by a huge margin.

You really wish all your calls would be so easy...
