Default 1st hand post (10+1 bubble)

Blinds 150/300
Villain sb 1245
Hero bb 1200
Two others are left with the rest of the money split pretty evenly between them

villian just got thumped a few hands ago and has raised two of the last three hands.....feels like he could be tilting a bit



folded to the sb who pushes...I have A8o. Do I call?

think it's a fold... more pushing, less calling
EDIT: didn't run this through SNGPT

I think it's a pretty clear fold. The only you're hoping for him to show is an ace with a worse kicker. Otherwise, you're dominated, a 60/40 favorite, or a 45/55 dog.

He does not have to be tilting to push A LOT here. However, whether he is pushing a lot because of tilt or because he's good, you should call, and it is very important that you do IMHO.

If your read is screwed, so are you. But, you've got a read. Use it.

I think this is a pretty easy call. He pushed for 4 BBs. I push almost any two in his position regardless of tilt. Add on the tilt factor, and this is an "instacall"
