PLO8 Tournament hand - A32x to push

[Burdzthewurd]

SB is a real donk, he's called down with 5 lows, pushed around with bare overpairs, etc. Is this still an easy fold with nothing suited and not much of a high draw? Blinds are super-fast and I need to accumulate chips since the bubble is super-tight.

1) If you're seriously considering folding to a small raise , you shouldn't be raising ~20% of your stack from EP.

2) You're in great shape against his range. Don't fold.

He's a donk, but even if he has a "real hand", check some possible hands in his "upper" range:

1) Kh Kd Td 9c you are 54% by EV
2) Kh Qd Jd Tc you are 58%
3) Ad 2d Jh Tc you are a 52% favorite (surprise!)

You have a clear call getting ~2:1. If "tournament conditions" lobby for a fold, then your mistake was raising preflop.
