No he has aces

I unhappily call.

Oh man. This position totally sucks. If you had just a few hundred more chips, I'd fold. But I think you have to call.

I might still fold if it was one of those rare tournaments where there was a lot of bubble action (both pushing and calling) and I thought something goofy would happen before my next BB. But those situations are rare. I think you're stuck.

Why call? Woudlnt he be better off pushing the next couple of hands. Even if he folds this hand and his SB next hand, he'll still be at 895. The key is to survive as long as possible, and, if thats unlikely, wait for a hand that does better against a wider range...

Unless hes the type that would go all in with any two. Then, I call.
