60s - how bad is bubble call?

braminc · #1 07-04-2007, 10:16 PM

Villain is a medium volume hack ~1% roi guy. Clearly knows ABOUT push/fold strategy, but i doubt knows HOW to use it real effectively based on results... so does that mean i should expect him to push wider or tighter in this situation??

UTG folds, <font color="#cc0000">Button raises all-in t2160</font>, <font color="#cc0000">hero calls all-in t1930</font>, BB folds.
Uncalled bets: t30 returned to Button.

Are there antes on FT? Anyway, with antes and a range of 22+,A2o+,A2s+,K6o+,K4s+,Q8o+,Q6s+,J9o+, J9s+, 87s+ this call is about even. So it can go up or down a bit with his range. In my experience a lot of the 1% ROI guys on stars push way too wide. I can see him adding a few hands to the range I gave. But either way, this is going to be close. In game if I thought button was aggro I call. After looking at I like a fold because I think the BB was call a reasonable amount of the time and this will transfer a lot of $EV to you.

any 1% roi guy is going to push way too wide. thats why his roi is low.
that being said i would rather push as a 40% dog with equity than call on the bubble as a 60% favorite.
assuming he doesnt actually show up with a hand
that being said i do not like the call

I agree with Little and hoya, these guys usually push too wide. That said this is an even call. Shoving ATC on the button is probably better then calling here, barely.

this is a really really easy snap call.

Blah, it really depends on the 1% ROI player. I take massive notes so I know when a player pushes with T4o OTB with 5 BB's. Without reads, I call because I run good and win here like 80% of the time.

I guess I make this call but I'm not sure how good it is. There aren't antes on FT and I haven't run any numbers w/out antes.

Honestly, my gut says fold, but I don't have the software in front of me.

I think I know who you're talking about, and I instacall.
