Okay level 1 of 10+1 Sit N' Go. All stacks are about equal.
I am in 4th position with A /images/graemlins/club.gif K /images/graemlins/club.gif
Folds around to me and I raise to 75.
5th position reraises to 150
6th position folds
7th position calls
Button reraises all in.
Folds around to me.
Pot is 1175...

About 1.6 to 1 pot odds with two players yet to act that have a good chance of calling because of the preflop reraise. I would say the implied odds are about closer to 2.6 to 1.

I also figure that the BB is just trying to buy the pot right there because of the oversized bet (medium pocket pair, maybe AK or AQ)...

No reads on the players yet as it is still really early, only that the caller of the first reraise has a 16% win record.

Should I call or fold and why?

With no reads this is a clear fold, but if you use my little friend up there, and see that this guy is a total donkey (the button that is) then you can call correctly...BUT you still have to worry about the guy who 3-bet you and whether he'll call. But prophecy helps a lot in these situations.

I use poker prophecy...the guy that raised on the button had a 26% win and the guy that reraised with 28%...this doesn't really tell me anything other than that they could have nothing or they could have the hand. So you think that this is a fold?

i'd def call then

fish usually don't go crazy with AA or KK PF and thats all your really worried about.

i'd wager that you have at least one of them dominated.

at 10+1, i would call, reguardless of poker prophecy. (my main acct has a 43% ITM in pokerprophecy, which is close to my real ITM. but my 2nd acct has a ITM rate of ~20% (and -50% ROI) over 100 SnG's, but poker prophecy has it at 32% ITM. /images/graemlins/confused.gif )

anything above 10+1, i would fold w/o a read.

Well the result of the had was as follows;
I call all in.
Both raiser and caller fold.
All in raiser has pocket 4's.
4's hold up.

I'm just wanted to know what you guys thought about this play. Thanks.

calling is ok here. You're not going to lose your a$$ for making this call in the 11s. I think that folding is a lot better than calling though. You can typically find a better spot to get your money in than this.

then you have gotten fantastic odds for your money, results mean nothing.
