Hey,
I was wondering if this was a clear fold based on the short stack's chip position. If so, what hands would you consider playing in this spot?
I had been taking a pretty brutal hit of cards at this point and hadn't been involved much.
The BB was a fairly good player who was getting aggressive as of late.
The short stack was very tight given his desperate position and was folding too much, IMO.
The SB had acquired a big stack early on through very loose calls and some over aggressive preflop play and had maintained it. He raises tons and tons of hands and is fairly liberal in calling an all-in of my stack size here (with a wide spread of hands).
Tell me what you think.
