Yep at the top right you can change it from push EV to call EV.

This is an easy call, even readless. You'd have to know the guy was the biggest nit ever to fold.

ok Thanks blackize..

thanks Fenef... just had to check... as i've been learning somethings lately and have heard from some that shouldn't even call with AK in some spots so I was just checking if this was one of those spots...

Such spots are usually on the bubble. In this situation:

Button: 1500
SB: 8000
You: 4000

you would be completely justified calling with AJo here. However, if the stacks looked like

Cutoff: 1000
Button: 1500
SB: 7500
BB: 4000

you would have to fold almost everything (including AK) to a SB push. Play around with SNGPT a bit to see what I mean.

Sometimes the raise/call option doesn't show up, because of the resolution. It's in the upper right, as a drop down. Make sure to post if you can't find it.

An interesting question would be where to draw the line in calling. One way, besides using SNGPT, of approaching this is to use the guidelines suggested by NLHE for cash play, and then adjust as appropriate (which would range from a bit tighter to what's suggested there, to way tighter, depending on the situation).
