Default Re: 22: BB, 2+2er in SB

[ QUOTE ]
Personally I don't like it. Although he is a 2+2er, which means he's pushing any two here, there are a lot of hands that contain two over cards to your 44. I'd only call with pockets when I think there is a very decent chance one of his cards will be lower. Ie, when I have like 77+.

Let's see what SNGPT says...just as I suspected, I'm wrong. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

If he's pushing any two it is +2.0$EV to call. He has to be pushing a tighter range than top 35% (22+,A2+,K5o+,K2s+,Q9o+,Q8s+,J9s+) to make this a fold.

I was also taking into account, not just this hand, but what will likely transpire the rest of the game. Constantly having him push into me. Me having a hard time stealing from the bigstacks. It wasn't shaping up to be a pretty game. I think that I just had to take the chance and make my stand here. Of course, it's a huge bonus that if he IS pushing any two (likely) then the call is +EV on its on merits. But larger game factors also apply, IMO.
