Default 108 $ sng, TT ?

NL, $108 buy-in
Big Blind is 300

UTG (110)
Hero (2100) with Tc, Ts.
CO (2415)
Button (8870)
BB (1205)

Preflop:
UTG fold, Hero raise 900, CO allin 2415, Button fold, BB allin 1205, Hero-?

It's not mine hand and it's a clear pf push of course, but as played what you think guys i need to do here and why?

After raising to 900, I can't see how you can fold now. If you fold and:

-Co wins you'll be 4 handed with 1200 and shortie being all on the next hand, not a bad situation

-bb wins you'll be 5 handed with 1200, co with 1200 and bb with 2400, not a good sitution

If you call and:

-win the sng will be 4 handed, you increase your stack to around 5900 which guarantees you'll be itm

-co wins and you bubble

-bb wins but you beat co, you're in roughly the same shape as folding

Calling seems to be far and away the best decision.

i don't see any sense in raising 3xBB with 7BB in your stack.

just push preflop with M<5

call here as DeuceSeven analysed clearly.

What is this M of which you speak?


DeuceSeven nailed it IMO.

i'd consider this the bubble with shorty at 110 chips. i like the 2.5x or 3x raise in this spot a lot more if there are 6 or 7 players. but on the bubble it is just a bad time to do it (especialy when you have a nice chiplead over the 3rd stack). having the bigstack come over the top of you with KJ or KQ is a huge disaster. so just push preflop.

Just wondered why it's being used in the STT forum.

Darn, I hate it when Shillx disagrees with me. I got some homework to do. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Shillx - is this because of the buy-in? Would you say call if it was (a lot) lower?
