Default 55 - AKos with a 15x BB raise ahead of me.

Figured it was a coinflip worst case scenario and that with the dead money that would presumably be trapped in the pot, it was worth it to push overtop. Agreed?

225 is a helluva bet and a helluva call. I certainly don't love your chances to have dead money in the pot. I don't love your chances to win either.

Fold. IMO.

Harrington did this at the final table of the WSOP vs Greg Raymer and Josh Arieh. Not two $55 donks.

Obviously you don't have a trash hand, so you'd be doing this for value instead of an out-and-out squeeze play, but I don't like it.

You've got absolutely no idea where you stand. Original raiser said he had a big hand, and what's the cold call mean? Could be some donk with 66, or could be somebody with AA trying to trap a donk behind him into pushing, cause of the dead money [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
