Do you call heads up in this situation?
This is a hand from a PokerStars $35 6 handed sit and go.
Its down to two players and my opponent has me outchipped about 2 to 1. He is an extremely aggressive player, with a high ranking on all the Stars TLB (yearly, monthly, weekly) __________________________________________________ ______ PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (2 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx Hero (t3139) BB (t5861) Preflop: Hero is Button with 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Hero calls t75, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to t5861</font> Putting aside the question of whether or not I should open push, do you call or fold? Do you think it is close or clearcut? Thanks, Jonathan

Easy fold, and no you don't open-push with the blinds where they are.

Re: Do you call heads up in this situation?
Why do you both think this is an easy fold?
What hands do you put him on? For example, if opponent is pushing with 66, 55, 44, 33, 22, A6, A5, A4, A3, A2, K6......etc. then its an easy call. The open push, is very close. But if you assume that opponent has loose calling standards, then SNGPT shows this to be a marginal push. I'm really surprised that both of you think this is such an easy fold. Explain please. Thanks, Jonathan

Why would you want to get all your money in on the bad side of a coinflip? You still have plenty of chips to work around with if you fold.

You have 21 BB. Why on earth are you considering calling here? I'm going to be passing unless the BB is 600 or something - I think it THEN becomes a marginal decision.

Push 'em if ya want - if ya get called you're still half-way alive and maybe a generally even money flip, but to flat-call BB and THEN flat-call AI is just awful poker.
