Default Re: Another \"do you gamble\" spot

Both shorties are desperate and both know that they are desperate. They aren’t the brightest in the world, but they are gamboolers. The latter shorty is most likely aware enough to understand that the other guy can have lots of hands. There is no reason to expect that open raiser is doing anything wacky with his non-push raise.

Seat 3: Seat 3 ( $2735 )
Seat 4: Seat 4( $630 )
Seat 6: Hero ( $1310 )
Seat 1: Seat 1 ( $560 )
Seat 8: Seat 8 ( $3985 )
Seat 9: Seat 9 ( $780 )

Blinds(75/150)

** Dealing down cards **

Dealt to Hero [ 7h 7d ]

Seat 8 folds.
Seat 9 folds.
Seat 1 raises [300].
Seat 3 folds.
Seat 4 is all-In [555]
Hero …?

This is slightly/very off topic/hijack, but i had a similar situation in an MTT ...4 left, i was 3rd stack, shorty UTG pushes his 145k (30k blinds) and UTG+1 cold calls (500k stack)....Im in SB with 190k and 88. I was ready to call before UTG+1 called then opted for fold. Obviously, moving up from 4th to 3rd in an 1800 man event is huge whereas in this SNG you might need help just to make the $.

That aside, I would fold here. If they both have Ax or two overs and an underpair then you're ahead, but say its like A6 JQ...you're a fav, but only a <40~% to win. One overpair and you're toast.

Too many hands in the ranges combine to make this a -EV call.
