Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t300 (6 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)
saw flop|<font color="C00000">saw showdown</font>
<font color="C00000">Hero (t850)</font>
UTG (t2505)
MP (t745)
CO (t1190)
Button (t1445)
<font color="C00000">SB (t1265)</font>
Preflop: Hero is BB with 6/images/graemlins/club.gif, 7/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="CC3333">SB raises to t1265 (All-In)</font>
For the price of 550, I can win 1150. I think my opponent will do this with the top 25% of hands (maybe top 40%), and if this 'read' is correct, I am a 1:1.7 dog to that range of hands. If however, I pass on this hand, I will have 550 chips (down to 400 after the little blind moves through me), and my fold equity will be non-existant. If I make the chipEV+ play here, and I manage to get lucky and double up, I will be 2nd in chips and should have a very good chance of getting into the money.
What's the play?
