This is a horrible spot. Ugh, you're down to 3bb and literally no fold equity, but this hand is awful. I think because your chance of $EV is so low in this case anyway, you should call because of the +chipEV argument but, man, it's not good.

Fold, even against a random hand you don't have odds to call.

Even though you're getting over 2:1, I fold here.
You're a big underdog here (even with UTG's looser pushing standards) and losing totally cripples you. If you fold, IMO, you still have enough chips to realistically come back in this game. I think you're better off folding here. |

I thought it was close against a random hand but slightly negative.

Re: Should hero call?
any read on shorty? has he been inactive/quiet?
If he has seemingly been trying to find an opportunity to nut-peddle.. this makes it a trivial fold. Without reads, Its probably a fold still, although its close. |

I thought it was close against a random hand but slightly negative. [/ QUOTE ] 94o is 40.6 % vs a random hand and he would be getting over 2:1 to call. But I still fold here. I could be wrong about folding though. |

Re: Should hero call?
He calls. Pot = 1,165; Win % = 38.09 Tie % = 2.59
1165 x 38.09% = 444 1165 x 2.59/2 = 15 So it's slightly negative unless I have the pot wrong. I would fold this even if it was slightly positive against a random hand because I wouldn't think he would push any 2. |
