Default Re: $55 - 88 on the bubble with 4x BB, call a button push?


From a theoretical standpoint this is a clear call. First off the button should push with a very wide range here, and probably close to any 2 cards. That leaves a call with 88 as huge +EV.

Anyway I would call, if my opponent is much tighter than they should be God bless them, I will make tons of money in the future as they constantly fold to my blind and pass up clear +ev pushes.

His range:

22+,A2s+,A3o+,KTs+,KJo+,QJs = (+1.2%)

44+,A7s+,A9o+,KJs+ = (-1.3%)

(I think his range was probably somewhere between these two.)

[/ QUOTE ]

If his range is somewhere between these two he is much too tight and horrible.

Call.

I'd call with 66 and probably also with 55.

Blinds are so big that if he folds the next two hands after this he is going to be at about 3.5 bbs. I say that makes his range REAL REAL big. He has to or he's gonna be in trouble. If he was in later position he could probably wait for u two to get hit by the bb and possibly bust but at this point he's gotta be pushing. Maybe not any two, but pretty close.

I hate calling though, just because I hate calling in general but here u got to.
