Re: Callin all in with 99?

Looks like you'll have to call 27373 to win 45573 if my math is right. That means you'll need to win at least 37.5% of the time for the call to be +cEV.

99 is 38.3% against 88+/AQs/AKo, but if...

Let's look at this from a few different point of views.

CO's POV-

Let's see, we have an EP Limper, UTG+2 raises 5x - but he's been a little LAGGY. 1500 to me, my stack is 6000. I can't call...
