PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (6 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)
BB (t2420)
UTG (t1645)
MP (t1745)
CO (t5610)
Hero (t2610)
SB (t970)
Preflop: Hero is Button with A/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 2/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
Table folds the HERO as the button.
Hero: raises 300 to 500
Shortie: raises 470 to 970 and is all-in
Dude_in_BB: calls 770
Hero: Figures to be a 3:1 dog to both players...and folds...
=========
Am I priced into OVER-calling?
Too weak of a hand to push into the shortie?
I woulda called the shortie (and not liked it)...but felt compelled to fold after the big blind called...
Read: The only hands the shortie would re-push with puts me as a 3:1 for sure...and BB....?
Easy call w/the huge overlay?
Easy fold as I probably have the third best hand?
Bad push?
Edit: I think I learned the main lesson here already...Don't price yourself into calling the shortie's all-in when you'll only be calling as a dog...right?
