[bjb23]

It's not easy, but I call here, and I don't think it's a terrible one.

Push call whatever it takes to get your chips out there.

We just covered QQ a few days ago. The question should be when NOT to push/call with QQ.

Why do you say that it's not an easy call? What better opportunity will he have to double up?

***edit:

oopsies, didn't realize there was a SS with 300. Even then, he's not guaranteed to win if the SS doubles up.

[Shillx]

Yeah you have to call here. You actually have to call somewhat more liberally then normal here (not just TT+) since you aren't a lock to make the money if you fold. It looks you should be calling with 88+/AQ+ in this spot.

Yeah, I don't see when you'll have a shot this good in the next 2 orbits. Especially if he's laggy, I think this has a high expectation.

[cleinen]

Would you guys fold this if shorty had 300 or less?

[morgan180]

i think this is an easy call - i don't care about going out in 4th w/QQ i am looking to double up off the big stack.

[Karak567]

Easy call and it's not even close IMO. IF the shorty doubles up you are in trouble.

Folding here is terrible, again, IMO.

[bjb23]

so if shorty has <300 chips i still should call because there is a good chance of shorty doubling up??

[DasLeben]

If shorty is UTG and will take the BB the very next hand for his whole stack, I might consider folding this. Here, no.

[Nottom]

This might be close if you were the guy in seat 1.

You can't afford to go to 400 chips and give the shorty a chance to double up, super easy call.
