Default Re: PCA DSO Hand - 5 left - Do I make the call?

Way out of my league, but I'll take a stab.

One factor you don't mention is when the blinds will go up. (And I can't remember if they are going to 75/150 or 100/200.) The sooner and the steeper the blinds will increase, the wider my calling range becomes.

I'm assuming that you don't much care about the $65, or even the $650? For first you need chips, and can't wait around for Aces. It's great that you are the best player at the table, but you need chips to play that way. I'll widen my calling out to: 88+, AJ+, but I'd rather have the 88.

Good question on the blinds. They just moved to 50/100. They will go to 75/150 in about 10 minutes so there's plenty of play at this level.

I want to make the most profitable decision and that takes into consideration the entire prize pool. That doesn't mean I'm waiting for a huge hand to make a play here. And in fact I've been the most aggressive at the table for a couple of orbits now. But at the same time I'm not looking to make a bone head move just for the possibility to double up and join the ranks of the larger stacks.
