Fold though the numbers say \'Call!\'?
Villain has been fairly tight so far. I don't think he would push something like T9o here. Nevertheless, eastbay's tool advocates to call against any reasonable range of hands (e.g. any pair, any ace, K8+, QT+, JTs).
ICM+pen+paper tell me that I only need to win in 41% of all cases to make a call profitable. That would make it an easy call. However, a few points speak against calling: -If I lose I don't have any FE anymore. -If I lose the other middle stacks can wait till I bust before they take risks themselves which decreases the chance that I can sneak into the money without a fight. -I have position on the other two middle stacks. Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney 50+5$, Big Blind is t400 (4 handed) converter Hero (t2314) UTG (t1435) Button (t2134) SB (t4117) Preflop: Hero is BB with 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

Re: Fold though the numbers say \'Call!\'?
2 to 1 pot odds... and 10-9 o is the same as KJo, as far as I'm concerned.
The only hands you're worried about going up against is Ax and pocket pairs with A-2. Any other hand would warrant an easy call. It comes down to your read on the villain: do a Harrington-esque breakdown, and say how likely it is that he has PP, how likely he has Ax, and the rest, and figure out your relative pot odds. |
