Re: (109) more AQ bubble fun with raptor
I voted fold because I am a wuss. But I can see calling and going for 1st. If bigstack win you are 3rd, if you win you have a good shot at 1st.

Re: (109) more AQ bubble fun with raptor
i fold this in a flash, and (obviously) not because i don't think i have the best hand.
i remember a similar hand that kyro posted recently, that suggested calling in these situations might be correct? looking forward to having some better players shed some light on this. |

The chip leader could be doing this with a low pair hand like 66, in which case you're not in good shape. If the shortstack had KT you would be in a bad situation.

Re: (109) more AQ bubble fun with raptor
It is only a .4% mistake to call here if everyone will win 1/3 of the time (and it is 50/50 HU should you fold). AQ is just too good in this spot to not play I would think. You have to think that you have 40% equity here, no? That would certainly be enough to make this call.

Re: (109) more AQ bubble fun with raptor
I think this is a pretty fold. I wonder where to draw the line. Maybe QQ? Too conservative? What do others think?

Re: (109) more AQ bubble fun with raptor
I don't see why people are saying fold. This call seems to pretty clearly increase your chances of 3rd, and it probably increases your chances of 2nd and 1st also. That seems like a good idea to me.
Big stack's pushing range doesn't have us dominated. |

Re: (109) more AQ bubble fun with raptor
I'd say this is a fold and the other is a call, but I'm not so sure since that's what I Play G00t said.
Edit: Here's a contrarian thought on ICM adjustments. HERO: 2000 villian1: 4000 villian2: 4000 BB 300 or 400 I feel a lot better here than ICM says against most opponents. This is contrary because it seems like many people feel that ICM undervalues the big stack. I don't feel as big an edge (over expectation) as a big stack ITM. |
