I have to think yes. You're against other short stack, and so 50/50 should be good enough here.

If Villain is sane, this should be a very easy call, but we all know how much $11 Villains believe in reverse gap.

There's a lot of dead money in the pot, and you are the small blind. This is usually way enough +CEV to be a call. Of course, like lc said, you never know how tight they are. But I believe it's an easy call without reads. If the blinds were 50/100, I think you could fold. But not here.

Yeah call here. You can take slightly the worst of it in this spot with the T450 already out there. I would venture to guess that you could lay 10:9 odds here and come out ahead.

didnt notice you are sb and blinds are 150/300. but still no reason to call this. most of the time you will still be in a coin flip . i would rather push my self and have the fold equity to my side rather then make this call. and your not in a desperate situation just yet. your bb next so push if you can on the next hand. let this one go.
