What is my play here? SB hasn't pushed w/ crap, and hasn't pushed often, but do i give this up to protect my FE? or do i gamble? Do i have enough FE to protect?
This is a $20+2

It says 500/1000 tourney but the blinds are 250/500.

Assuming it's 250 5, you are getting 2.5-1 against a likely steal hand. I call. If he had you covered I would fold, but you are committed and have chip odds to call.

yeah, blinds were 250-500 it was a NL game, don't knwo why is says 500/1000.. So calling is usually correct, unless some crazy read... Like him calling my home phone and telling me what he has, gotcha.

Tough one. I'd like to pokerstove/ICM it, but I gotta run.

You are getting good odds on the call, but it looks like if you lose you have no FE, but if you fold, and the table is fairly tight, you still have decent FE.

If he is tight, you are probably almost a 2 to 1 dog.

It always says this for some reason. I think it's because it treats it as a limit game -- if the Big Blind is 500 in a limit game, it would be a 500/1000 game.
