What are the blinds at?

If it were me I think I would prolly dump it. But thats me, I would have to be put in that situation I guess. What did you do? And what happened

The blind is at 150

How have the blinds been playing? Have they been defending their blinds on previous raises? I think that if they have been passive I am going to push here originally instead of making that raise. I think the problem with the raise to 450 is that it leaves you in this sticky situation its tough to fold after putting that much of your stack at risk so you are probably commited to calling even though you are most likely beat.

barring no read that the SB is a calling station, I would push preflop.

to fold to this raise, you would have to put villan on a VERY tight (almost certainly unrealistic) range.

You don't really have any option but to call when you put 40% of your stack in for the raise. Thats why you should generally push when you have &lt;10xBB. You can't fold anyway, so you might as well maximize your fold equity.
