Default Re: ($27) Call an allin with QJo on the bubble?

Please do not say this is an "easy fold" without thinking about it, because it isn't. I wasn't sure about his range but it's definitely any pair any ace for sure, what I was unsure of was the suited connectors, and how weak his kings/queens would go.


PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t400 (4 handed) converter

UTG (t1565)
Button (t5470)
SB (t3945)
Hero (t2520)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

Hard to answer w/o know the dynamics of how he got to T1565.
Did he lose a big pot w/ KK to A5? Was he squeaky tight to that point? Did he open up for the bubble? How long have you been on the bubble?
Just looking at the stacks and position, I or anyone can give you a canned guess, but being at the table,you should have the "feel" for whats going on.

I'm going to make the assumption, that he was tight, and not pushing means he is looking for action.
For this reason, I fold, perserve my stack, and push on him when he is on the blinds.
