This depends on your opponent's pushing range, as with most 3-handed cases, quite a bit. Not knowing him, I call against a typical opponent at any level. The problem with assuming everyone is a "typical opponent" is that it never allows you to adapt in these situations where your opponent's range of hands makes a big difference in your EV.

FYP

"Playing for first" is just such awful reasoning it makes me want to kick puppies.

call... A9s will win 46% over A7-AK, Axs, pairs, KQs, KJs. If villain is pushing something worse like any two, A9s will win 63% of time. Pot is offering 1.5:1. Math: you will lose 2500 54% of time and win 3800 46% (assuming villain is on stronger range of hands) of time for +EV of 398 chips. If you lose you're still in ok shape. A must call, IMO.

now lets see what everyone else thinks...

I thought the OP had pocket 9's for some reason. Though I would probably still call.

Hmm, i'd fold this.


But after reading all these posts im obviously making a terrible mistake, hence why i've not got an ROI of azillion% at any limit. Thanks for this post and the responses, it has alerted me to an obvious leak in my game and i shall begin fixing it now. I think i need to put SNGPT on my christmas list..

Not so fast... wait 'til he links the OP, there is two sides to this story (although I doubt you would be folding for the "right" reasons)
