Huh? They're not going to fold. You're not getting odds to flop a set. Why would you play this?

Re: $22: Late shortstack w/ 33
 

I say that's a fold 10 times out of 10.
It's late, but not that late.
You've got a raise and a call in front of you, and a bigger-than-yours stack behind you.
You're good for several more orbits to pick a better hand to make a move on.

Cause he barely has 5 BBs and there are still 9 players left, but I fold as well. It's been a tight game apparently and two players put in a huge percentage of their stacks. Too likely an overpair.

Re: $22: Late shortstack w/ 33
 

If they share a card, I'm 40%. If they don't share a card, I'm about 31%. Also, one of them may fold, not to meantion the 150 blind chips help the potodds a lot on my 580 stack.

--right, the overpair chance hurts me a lot

still... why bother. wouldn't u get pissed off if you busted out of an SNG with 3-3? Especially when its not bubble time? Just sit and wait.

Re: $22: Late shortstack w/ 33
 

Ok, I'm being a pain because I don't want to work, but you're not good for several orbits. The circumstances would have to be pretty bad to let the blinds pass me again without doing something.

BTW, which Vancouver?

Re: $22: Late shortstack w/ 33
 

The "only" Vancouver, as in British Columbia.
Take your point on the "several orbits".
I'd be wanting to make a move from a blind sometime fairly soon.
But not 33.

It's really not the hand that's the issue. If you're first in, sure, shove it. It's the action that makes this a fold.
