Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (6 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

SB (t1150)


BB (t1135)
UTG (t2390)
MP (t1540)
Hero (t505)
Button (t1280)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 9/images/graemlins/club.gif, 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>.
UTG Folds
MP raises to t1540 (all-in)
Hero???

The next hand the blinds are going up another level, and MP has been pushing all in repeatedly, is this a good spot to call or should I wait it out?

I would consider calling it if you can put him on a pretty loose starting hand range (sounds like you can). The blinds are going to hit you in two hands and you will be left with a pitiful stack with no fold equity.

Plus, it's fun. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

This is a call. 3xBB (soon to be 2.5xBB) + loose pusher + terrible stack position = dream situation for you.

There is something wrong with your post. The 4 folds doesn't fit.

Anyway, assuming there are five players left, no question this is a call. You don't have time to wait around for AA.

The hand converter messed up so I just added in some of the details myself...oops, forgot to delete the 4 folds part.

Easy call here. You said the guy had been pushing in alot lately and obviously stealing, well this is the time for YOU to stop him!

Push, push, push.
