Villain has been playing well on the bubble. Has pushed from SB and button a few times now...

Anyone gamble here, especially with the big stack on my left? (I can't really steal from biggie.)

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t400 (4 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx (http://www.zerodivide.cx/converter)

Button (t2020)
SB (t1215)
Hero (t1740)
UTG (t5025)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 8/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 8/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.

UTG folds, button pushes, SB folds, hero...???

I'd call. But then again, I don't play $55s

Fairly read dependent, but off the top of my head my default is to call here I think.

That's what I thought too. SGA is giving me this:

His range:

22+,A2s+,A3o+,KTs+,KJo+,QJs = (+1.2%)

44+,A7s+,A9o+,KJs+ = (-1.3%)

(I think his range was probably somewhere between these two.)

Really? I think his range is definitely at least the first range, plus a few more hands if he's decent. No way he's folding A3 or QJs there. Call away. Glad our instinct is working alright.

EV fold : 19.0%

$EV diff. +1.2% / +$5.81

From a theoretical standpoint this is a clear call. First off the button should push with a very wide range here, and probably close to any 2 cards. That leaves a call with 88 as huge +EV.

Anyway I would call, if my opponent is much tighter than they should be God bless them, I will make tons of money in the future as they constantly fold to my blind and pass up clear +ev pushes.

If his range is somewhere between these two he is much too tight and horrible.

Call.

I'd call with 66 and probably also with 55.

Blinds are so big that if he folds the next two hands after this he is going to be at about 3.5 bbs. I say that makes his range REAL REAL big. He has to or he's gonna be in trouble. If he was in later position he could probably wait for u two to get hit by the bb and possibly bust but at this point he's gotta be pushing. Maybe not any two, but pretty close.

I hate calling though, just because I hate calling in general but here u got to.
