last 3, call or fold as the big stack.
Villain is decent TAG. As such, his range is very wide: any pair, any two cards 8 or higher, any ace, I would guess, which is about 38% of his hands. I just did an equity calculation, and to my surprise A7o is a 49:51 underdog against a random hand! Against the top 38% hand range A7 is also a 49:51 underdog. Initially I'd thought that I was "ahead" of his range, but apparently not. Who calls here, and if not, what equity (or what hand range) do you need to call here?

Stake was 6.50
I wanted to get a more mathematical answer, but did not know how to go about solving it. Since my stack is semi-overwhelming, perhaps it doesnt matter much what I do in this case, but I'm really interested in learning how to solve this sort of problem.

Re: last 3, call or fold as the big stack.
Without going into deep/exact math on it you are getting 2-1 to call a likely wide pushing shorty with A7 without risking much to your overall stack as chip leader. I don't think it requires much more than that.

Re: last 3, call or fold as the big stack.
The mathematical answer is that a call is good if he is pushing more than 17%, according to SnG Wiz.
Against top 38% hands, this is +1%, which is 54 cents, not bad for a 6.5$ SnG.
