Pretty terrible fold, IMO. I call any two there, and I don't think it's close.

Me? A great SNG player? I wouldn't go that far. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Anyways, I haven't played in at least a couple weeks (shown by my lack of posting here), so I could be wrong. But considering you're quite sure that the EP limpers will call a min-raise here, the pot odds are just too good. Personally, I call any two.

I'd also like to point out that in a Party SNG, this may be different. In a deep-stacked SNG (such as UB or Stars), this is much more clear, IMO.
