Re: Was this ITM all-in call correct?
The only way this call is correct is if villain is pushing any 2 here which isn't very likely.
I mean dude, you have JTos. It is NOT a good hand. You have almost no hands crushed unless he is pushing any jack high and a bunch of ten high hands. You are in the SB and have somebody left to act behind you. You are somewhat short stacked but you can still push from the button with a marginal amount of fold equity.
I can't believe you said this, "I figured that I was likely behind but not necessarily far behind." and then still called. Why on Earth would you call when you are behind almost any hand villain could hold? I just don't get it.
This call is awful unless button's range is verging on any two, which is unlikely. I would want something along the lines of a7+, 44+, kt+. I MIGHT call with QJs if the guy was a complete loon.
I would be pushing a-x, k5s+, q7s+, j9s+, 22+. I'd probably push t9s as well but I'd close my eyes before I did it.
