What buy in was this? I think the chances of you getting first if you knock him out increase enough where this is a good call the vast majority of the time.

Of course, how stupid of me to think curtains would lower himself into anything in the two digit range. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Given your opponent's likely range of hands (not being super-wide, but probably wide enough where A9s is probably at least 50% to win), I'd call. There's a good chance his thinking is that you're not going to call unless you have something good.

If you win, you basically win the whole darned thing (with an occassional 2nd). If you lose, you still have shorty outchipped 2600 to 1300, so you'll still get at least 2nd the majority of the time, and 1st isn't out of the question. If you fold, it's now 3535/5140/1325, with an aggressive player acting before you 2/3 times per orbit (who, indications appear to be (from this hand at least) isn't going to respect/fear your big stack).
