Na, getting 7:1 with a sweet hand is nice. I usually fold it before I see the full picture tho.

Seriously? It seems hero is to short to call this. I mean he is going to have to get most of his stack as in as a good favorite to make this profitable it seems. I'm really just asking, as I don't know the answer.

I fold this pf, especially with such a short stack.

The shove is ok, but since it will likely only get calls from hands that beat you I think a crai could get some chips in the pot from worse hands.

I don't see what is wrong with completing the SB. Folding PF vs completing and folding the flop is the difference between having 7 BBs and 6.5 BBs - not good either way. PF odds of 7:1 make me want to complete this with anything half decent.

Sure this hand is only .5BBs but if you add up all the mediocre SBs you folded instead of completing over the course of an entire sng that could account for a decent chunk of you stack.

if i had a bigger stack, i would fold pf.

i limp here looking for a draw because I am desperate and have good odds.

I dont know if this thinking is wrong though
