Not sure what to do here. The BB bumps to 300 next hand and if I fold that leaves me &lt;3BBs after posting the small blind. I called and his range was as wide as I expected - he flipped Q9o. Does anybody fold this? Why or Why not?

I like the fold here, if you expect a loose push range you are best 50/50 against this. I would wait and push the next hand if its folded to you.

what the hell loose range are you at best 50 50 against?

The question of what range you are 50/50 against isn't really relevant, but it made me curious enough to run the numbers.

ICM analysis
Call and win = .242
Call and lose = .0452
Fold = .128

.128 = .242x + .045(1-x)
.083 = .197x
x = .42

So, you only have to win 42% of the time to break even.

You are 50/50 against:

A3s+,A8o+,K9o+,K7s+,QTo+,Q8s+,J9s+,JTo+,T9s,66+ 23.1% of hands

You are 42% against:

A9s+,AJo+,KQo+,KTs+,QTs+,88+ top 9.8%


Your opponent has been folded to on the button with less than 4 big blinds.

With the blinds going up and 6 short stacked players, I think this is a call.

His range was proven wide enough to make at least make this a close call, but his range could have been much wider. No way to tell if he would have pushed worse hands or not.

Easy re-raise. Fine... just call.
