Aks 3 handed 2 all-ins, hero\'s action???
Interesting situation i found myself in here, i'm sure someone with better math skils could explain what the correct move was here, lets i hope i got it right.
$100 tourney blinds 400/800 (go up every 7 mins) Player 1 5775 Player 2 4495 Hero 4730 player 2 posts 400 hero posts 800 player 1 goes all-in player 2 calls all-in hero is dealt ah kh call or fold??? player 1 has been quite aggressive player 2 has played slightly tighter but since the blinds went to 400/800 everyone has loosened up somewhat. Any thoughts on hand ranges for player 1 and player 2?? |

come on guys this is surely an interesting post,
a thing to remember is that if player 1 wins hero still takes second. |

if you fold lets say you get first 50% and 2nd 50% so thats worth 25 + 15 or 40
if you call lets say you get first 35% and 3rd 65% so thats worth 17.5 + 13 or 30.5 im rounding heavily but it seems a fold is in order even if you factor in a tiny bit of 3rd into the first scenario. |

How do you get 1st 50% of the time with 33% of the chips?

This is the same kind of scenario, sort of, that Gazes was faced with in that one WSOP episode. He had AKs as well facing two all-in's. If he won, he was nearly assured the braclet, if he lost he was basically done.
At absolute worst you triple up Player 2, you have him covered so even if you can't beat Player1 and do beat player2, you take 2nd. If you win, you are nearly assured the 1st place prize unless you somehow horrible screw up the incredible 10+:1 chip lead. I call. They're going to have to show me AA or KK. More likely 88 - JJ, A9-AJ. |

well if you are like me and stanzee you will win more heads up matches even with a 2:1 chip deficit.

Before the hand, you had about a 1/3 stake in the prize pool. If you push, you will take half the prize pool about 37% of the time, assuming the rest of the time you split evenly between 2nd and 3rd, you're basically right back to your 1/3 stake in the prize pool, maybe you've improved a couple %. If you get out of the way, let's assume the loser of this pot finishes 3rd and you go heads up against a stack that is a little more than twice yours. You're sure to get at least 30% of the prize pool. Assuming you're a 70/30 underdog heads-up, your share of the prize pool will be 36%. I think SNGPT says the small stack wins 30% of the time with these chip counts. All seems pretty much like a toss up to me. But, I'd like to think I'm better than average heads up, so that I'll win a bit more than 30% of the time, so I'll probably get out of the way. Then again, the first guy all-in doesn't have to have a mid-pocket pair or AJ, AT, A9 -- his effective push range should be wider than that. Player 2, though he has loosened up a bit, probably still has a pretty tight calling range here. I still think it's a toss-up (given these approximate hand ranges). |

If you had 300 less chips, this is an easy fold. In this spot, I think it's an easy call.
