At the lower levels, I call. Don't know about the $55s however. Probably fold.

Hmmm I think call this 90% of the time. Also, maybe this is a leak, but my inclination is to see players with shorter stacks early in the tourney as being loosey goosey. Obviously, if you saw how he lost part of his stack then it would be easier, but its hard in a multitabling situation. Only way I'm folding is if i check prophecy and hes has a 40% itm with many 55s and 109s logged.

O sorry, I misread the post and didnt realize that button called. This makes it more of an interesting situation but I still think push it in unless both button and pusher have 543212345654321234567 55s and 109s logged according to prophecy. In this situation prophecy = nuts.

You're getting 1-2 odds on your call. You should call. Too bad if he happens to have AA or KK and you miss.

I know.
For some reason I didn't do the math to determine my equity against AA/KK/AK. It's 39% if I'm not mistaken, making this an extremely easy call. I have a bad habit of avoiding +EV situations early for all (or most) of my chips because I loathe busting out in 10th. Its faulty thinking, I acknowledge that.

BTW YOUR CAPS LOCK IS ON.

Busting out in 10th with a strong hand is better than getting blinded out in 4th with crap hands.
