The villain in this hand would have to be terrible for this to be a fold. Given that he is a 2+2er I think this is a very easy call. Play around with SNGPT.

This seems like a pretty easy fold with the blinds this small.

What range do you put him on?

[/ QUOTE ]

my range here is usually JJ+. i misclicked all in. so next time i will have JJ+ and you can easily fold. as far as your call goes, i was a little surprised by it, but i don't hate it. i probably wouldn't have made the call, but i'm weak tight when it comes to calling. and of course you were ahead of me preflop so you probably shouldn't second guess yourself.

lol.

I'd fold here and I'm surprised it's close.

[pokerlaw]

As the SB here, I am pushing a lot of hands. A3s is 51.6% against the top 50% of hands, which is about where my range is.

Given the dead money in the blinds and the fact that elimniating a 2+2er (compared to an average $27er) is also a good thing, this is a quick call for me.

Clear call I think, it's a call if you're both using a GT equilibrium strategy.

I actually thought that you thought that I would be tight about calling and thus pushing with a wider range than you might otherwise, which means I should call wider.

[bawcerelli]

no, i knew you'd loosen your range up, but i still had to push with K7o IMO.

If you think that K7o is a required push, then I think I have to call with the A3s. Just sucked that after I doubled up again the KJo beat my ATo [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

just FYI, the GT-optimal balance is approx. 55% push / 25% call.
