Default What do i do here - on the bubble

$22

SexyStud had been pushing all in preflop nearly every hand once the blinds go big. He was loose.

I realise that getting overcalled was terrible here, but do i still call this knowing SexyStud is on any 2?

I figured i was in front and with limtied stealing oppurnties i had to call here

According to SNGPT even if he's pushing any 2 and assuming the BB always folds u need 88+ to call here. However most $22 players aren't smart enough to work out when to push any two.

I still call here but it's very close.

Man the BB is a friggin retard ... worst ever overcall. Can stand idiot players like that ... unless I'm the microstack of course and comes 4th instead of me.

I think the overcall is okay.

If he loses the sidepot, he can expect that the bully has won the entire pot and therefore he takes third place.

If he wins the sidepot, then he got almost a freeroll at winning the entire pot.

What if i win and he loses to bully? Then he comes 4th.

I think the overcall would have been ok with a,k or a big pocket pair say j,j+ but not with a,j.

You saying you would call with a,j there?

In his position I would easily be folding AJ here even without your call all in, let alone with you calling here.
