Pokerroom $10 (15.000 total chips)
Down to 3 players, and I have increased my stack to 6000 through blindstealing, and aggression on the flop if checked to me, both on the bubble and ITM.

The two remaining players seemed to be fairly easy to push around if faced with aggression, so I'm kindda regretting this call, since it would most likely be a coinflip.

Anyway, (Blinds 200/400)
SB 3000 chips
BB (me) 6000 chips
Button 6000 chips

Button goes all in (he hadn't done that earlier), Sb folds and I call with 88. Going allin, I didn't put him on a monster, but instaed pocket pair or perhaps Ax. Against Ax it would most likely be a coinflip, and pocket pair, I would either be a huge favourite or dog.

But seeing as it seemed easy to steal blinds from them, wouldn't I rather avoid this situation at this point of time?
I don't like coinflips with the othe rbig stack, but it seemed like a 50% shot at getting first (basically).

I call. And IMHO, it's not close.
