Default Re: Bob Ciaffone One Table Quiz

I would usually call.

Gap is small here, negative possibly because of big blinds.

Some UTG's could have any two.

Winner take all places no extra value on survival, and big blinds means it will be hard to outplay your opponents by much.

Your SB will be seriously -EV.

People may mistakenly not want to attack the big stack, so your extra chips may be worth more.

You are getting pot odds to call every hand except AK, AQ, AA, KK, QQ. These are less likely. Against any pair or ace you are 39.8% to win for +91 CEV, and usually he will do this with more than 20% of hands. Just adding KQ KJ pushes you to +160 CEV, and adding just KTs,QTs,JTs,QJ to that gives you +244.

Definitely a coin flip you shouldn't avoid.
