View Full Version : Call or fold?

I wasn't sure whether this is a no-brainer call or a no-brainer fold. Very very early in the tournament, so no real reads, but the first pusher is almost certainly on tilt after losing the last hand. I put him on two cards. My thinking is that the second raiser probably knows that the first raiser has any two cards and could also have quite a large range of hands. But at the same time, it's very early in the tournament, and I only have QQ - is it worth the risk?

Bison's converter is down, so here's my own hand-typed version of it:

NL Texas Hold'em $10 Buy-in + $1 Entry Fee Trny:15506839 Level:1 Blinds(10/15)
Seat 8 is the button
Total number of players : 10
UTG ( $265 )
UTG+1 ( $800 )
UTG+2 ( $785 )
MP1 ( $905 )
<font color="blue">Hero ( $800 )</font>
MP3 ( $1125 )
CO ( $740 )
Button ( $1040 )
SB ( $785 )
BB ( $755 )

SB post blind of 10; BB posts blind of 15

UTG is all-In [265], 2 folds, MP1 is all-In [905], <font color="blue">Hero...</font>

Folding QQ to 2 all-ins in the low limits without a read is generally terrible.

Call.

1. you are a 2 to 1 favorite against what I would consider a reasonable range at the $11s (77+ AJo+) where I'd put the MP1 villain.

2. easy call at the $11s.

Okay, great. That was my immediate thought, but I second-guessed myself. I did finally call, but I wanted to ask about it here too.
