The deck was running over me early in a UB 6 handed $10+1 SnG, I've raised 1/2 the hands and built up to about 1300 chips. UTG, I have AcKc, and raise to 50. UTG+1, normal so far, goes all in for 800 chips. Folded back to me.
In favor of calling are that I will still have 500 chips to work with, 50xBB; that he may think I'm just LAGging it up and has nada, and that unless he has KK or AA, I'm at least 50-50 (OK 45%) to take his chips and build a good lead (more important early in the 6er than a 10 man IMO)
In favor of folding is that I may be killed right now, I have minimal investment in the pot, even if he doesn't have me now, he can catch, and I can preserve my "Hey, he's just raising with junk" image.
What say y'all?
For those interested, results in white: <font color="white"> I call. Villain tables K5 offsuit, flops a 5, turn gives me a club draw, river brings neither A nor club </font>
