40k Gaur Hand 1010 feeling pressure towards the end!!

[Crispy]

Around 120 ppl left, blinds are 500/1000. Average stack is 15,000, and here has 12500. Hero picks up 1010 utg +1, and makes it 3k, gets one caller from MP+1 and MP+2 pushes for 20k. Now this player I havent seen much action from him so its hard to make a really good read. Wih a pot of around 20k and i have to call 9k, im getting around 2:1.

Do I make this call or fold? These spots have proven to be really difficult for me when I get pocket pairs from 99-JJ and I get faced with a lot of heat. Thanks for any help.

call.

also, i probably just push to start.

Yeah, you're not getting away from this hand. I too probably just push to open. Your stack is so low that you have odds to call when you put the pusher on a range.

Even if we worst case scenario it, and place you against only hands that beat you or AK, you are still 2:1. The pot is offering better than 2:1 and 77-99, AQ, AJ are actaully possible here. So are other donk moves.

Hand 1: 66.3465 % [ 00.66 00.00 ] { AA-JJ, AKs, AKo }
Hand 2: 33.6535 % [ 00.33 00.00 ] { TT }
