Re: Call w/A-4 on bubble w/short stack

If you don't have any reads, I can't put him on a range looser than 22+ A2+, K9+, QJ, and you certainly shouldn't play A4o against that. Against an aggressive big stack who could be raising a lot of hands, the call beomes much better. I think I gamble here.

According to pokerstove, A-4 is a 1.3 to 1 dog against that range of hands, and the pot is now offering me 1.4 to 1 odds.
If I fold and push with any two in one of the next two hands, then I'm pushing $1000 to win $1600 if the BB calls, which the BB should, because the BB will be getting more than 2-1 to call. Let's assume I have to push a hand like 97 off suit. That hand is a 46% dog (1.25 to 1) against a random hand. So the pot odds there are also favorable, but more favorable.
Did I analyze this correctly?
