Default Re: a coin flip dilemma

good point so (assuming you are not the blind)
blinds (25+50) = 75 you bet 50+100 = 150
pot = 225 your stack = 1350
villan bets 1500 pot = 1725
pot odds to call 1.3 to 1

blinds (25+50) = 75 you bet 50 + 200 = 250
pot = 325 your stack = 1250
villan bets 1500 pot = 1825
pot odds to call 1.46 to 1

blinds (25+50) = 75 you bet 50 + 300 = 350
pot = 425 your stack = 1150
villan bets 1500 pot = 1925
pot odds to call 1.67 to 1

I will win 54% of the time (6 to 5) I really only need to get slightly less than 1 to 1 pot odds but since this will knock me out it comes down to personal preference in choosing your battle no?

I think I would call - it will increase variance but when you do triple up (assuming 1,000 starting stacks) this early you are in good position for the reminder of the SNG.
