Is this a coin flip?
 

Stars $55R, 35 left, 18 get paid, my stack is around average. Has only been at the table a few orbits and hasn't done anything noteworthy. Neither has the reraiser

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t600 (7 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

MP1 (t24450)
Hero (t16300)
CO (t15195)
Button (t50143)
SB (t22583)
BB (t7501)
UTG (t35845)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG calls t600, 1 fold, Hero raises to t2400</font>, CO raises all-in to t15145, 3 folds, UTG folds, Hero ???

It's a coinflip if he has 22-QQ. Hope that answers your question. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Yes it does. Thank you very much. Two additional question:

- Do you call?
- Why (not)?

Yes. I'm getting the right odds to race; he may have a dominated hand, and I'm not in so comfortable a chip position that I can let a hand as strong as AKs go.

Does this help:

equity (%) win (%) tie (%)
Hand 1: 45.5934 % 45.34% 00.26% { AKs }
Hand 2: 54.4066 % 54.15% 00.26% { 22+ }

More realistically:

equity (%) win (%) tie (%)
Hand 1: 50.7701 % 43.12% 07.65% { AKs }
Hand 2: 49.2299 % 41.58% 07.65% { 88+, AQs+, AQo+ }
