Hero?

Villain had overraised twice, the second time showing down with TT.

I'll be left w/ ~9xBB 5-handed if I fold, so not desperate but not happy.

How weak a fold is this?

[lastchance]

Well, Villain has AJ+, 77+ at the very least. Hero's about a coinflip against that range, which might be a fold, though I probably think Villain's pushing a bit more than that.

I can't fold here without a decent read that Villain isn't pushing A9 or something.

[Rootabager]

call. you have a big hand. He does not even have to have a hand. he is raising into the short stacks. I do this with 56. I wouldnt even exepct a coinflip most of the time.

[Freudian]

Do you think villain would push 27xBB with AA/KK? If not, then you removed the two hands that you really hate to play against from his range.

That makes this call very easy for me.

Look at the stacks behind villain. He's not pushing 27x BB. He's pushing 10x.

Though in the $11's, it's easy to see an odd limp with AA.

[Freudian]

I have never seen anyone raise more than 3xBB when they have Aces or Kings in level 4 on Party. It is possible that it happens at higher limits where second level thinking becomes a factor but at lower limits you can pretty much eliminate AA/KK here.

[liucipher]

Agreed. My gut told me I was probably against a mid-pocket pair given his past raise. Question was whether flipping a coin was necessary given the situation.

Rootabagger brings up a good point that, because I'm not certain and he'll be bluffing a chunk of the time, it pushes the coinflip in my favor.

Looks like a pure steal with a big stack. With the amount of chips you have I don't think twice before calling and getting my chips in with a coinflip at the very worst

[yabastid]

I call pretty quickly.
