Default $16 - 75/150 Short stack button shoves over KQs BB

Button is 2+2, not really sure how he plays but I'm assuming he is shoving fairly wide. Should this be a call, or should I fold to preserve my stack? Even if I lose this hand I'm about even with the other stacks.


PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t150 (5 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t2810)
CO (t2650)
Button (t1245)
SB (t2985)
Hero (t3810)

Preflop: Hero is in BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="red">Button raises to t1245 (All-in)</font>, <font color="gray">SB folds</font>, <font color="gray">Hero?

Pretty easy SNGPT problem &amp; it looks like a pretty easy call if he is shoving appropriately. It matters, though, if he knows you are 2p2 &amp; the calling range of CO. If he assumes you both are super tight then this is a easy call.

I wonder why [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Didn't matter much though cause I donked off all my chips like two hands later.

I like it either way if you're not sure he's shoving wide. Calling is likely +EV but I'd have no problem preserving my stack and giving shortie some chippies.

If yes I can search the hand if you want

Good fold actually, as I had AQ (for real)

Yeah it was you, you can if you want. I assumed you didn't know I was 2+2, and just shoved wide, but wasn't sure if it was worth calling. I think I might be giving too small of a range to this shove though. Not to mention I'm not really in bad shape if I lose.

I'm calling. It's probably +EV against someone shoving wide, you're in fine shape if you lose and if you win you're the dominating stack on the bubble which is fun.

I insta call this against a 2+2er. Especially if I know he knows me
