is AK good against an all in here?
I always face this situation. I never know what to do but usually if more then 2 or 3 people call a very high raise that has been raised before the gun is on me, i usually fold depending on my reads. But here is a situation. please tell me what your opinions and what you may have done.

I'd fold unless my read tells me to do otherwise.

It's a fold unless the pusher has a wide range. With his stack/position + the fact he's pushing over the big stack's limp, I fold here quickly, and puke when he shows AJ.

Well, I think hands like AA/KK/QQ raise for value (rather than push). Furthermore, what does Tankito's limp mean? Is this common? What's the buyin?
But yeah, calling off here with this many BBs behind is a little tough. |

What's the buyin? Cuz in the $11s I play on PP, this is a call. Those people push AJ without thinking twice.

Re: is AK good against an all in here?
At a lower buy-in, I would say it's an easy call. Top pairs would raise so as to get one or two callers, unless total newbie. If he has AA/KK more power to him and it's only a low buy-in. Most likely has PP Jacks or lower, A-x or even K-x. You've either got him dominated or you've have a coin flip.
Higher buy-ins, I am not there yet, but I still do not think calling is bad play. To me that is a bet that screams you can't call this rather than I want a call. (I am newer to hold'em SnGs, previously I played a lot of LO8). |
