Default 77 in the BB? Button raises all in, Hero?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (6 handed) converter

SB (t1295)
Hero (t1160)
UTG (t1490)
MP (t2070)
CO (t1200)
Button (t785)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Button is all-in, SB folds, Hero ?!?

Flop: (t885) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Turn: (t885) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

River: (t885) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

Final Pot: t885

Not sure what to do here. The BB bumps to 300 next hand and if I fold that leaves me &lt;3BBs after posting the small blind. I called and his range was as wide as I expected - he flipped Q9o. Does anybody fold this? Why or Why not?

I like the fold here, if you expect a loose push range you are best 50/50 against this. I would wait and push the next hand if its folded to you.

The question of what range you are 50/50 against isn't really relevant, but it made me curious enough to run the numbers.

ICM analysis
Call and win = .242
Call and lose = .0452
Fold = .128

.128 = .242x + .045(1-x)
.083 = .197x
x = .42

So, you only have to win 42% of the time to break even.

You are 50/50 against:

A3s+,A8o+,K9o+,K7s+,QTo+,Q8s+,J9s+,JTo+,T9s,66+ 23.1% of hands

You are 42% against:

A9s+,AJo+,KQo+,KTs+,QTs+,88+ top 9.8%


Your opponent has been folded to on the button with less than 4 big blinds.

With the blinds going up and 6 short stacked players, I think this is a call.

His range was proven wide enough to make at least make this a close call, but his range could have been much wider. No way to tell if he would have pushed worse hands or not.

Easy re-raise. Fine... just call.
