Hero calls?

I absolutely hate doubling guys up when I'm in a good lead, but I think I'm getting odds on this call.

Is this a loose call?

Not to nitpick, but do you have a quick justification? I have mine but I wanted to hear other people's thoughts.

Result: I actually did call and lose the, then eventually won the game. I wasn't happy with losing the hand but I think it was still the right move.

Sure,

The reason it is an easy call, is becasue you are pot comitted. If I were in his shoes I would push any card above 10, which also gives you queen high credit over alot of his pushes.

I think a big factor here is how your opponent plays heads up. If I'd been able to steal blinds from him easily then I might lean towards folding. If he's been pushing all the time then its an easy call.

i think u have to call here

this does bring up an interesting point tho...there is some combo of stacks/blinds where it becomes correct to call an all-in with any two...here he only has 2x the blinds (3x bb), so i think u are to that point...but where exactly is that point?

http://www.pokerstove.com/analysis/allin.php has a graphical analyzer...maybe i'll play around with that to see the trend that occurs...if it's 2x bb, 3x bb, 1xbb, etc

yes, trivial call.

Do you still call if blinds are 100/200?

I don't think I do.

Haha I don't even play SNGs anymore. Doh.

If villain has become a push monkey and his range is really wide, I'd call and I don't hate giving myself the best possible chance to win. Of course if hes really tight and I can just pound him into submission then I fold since my q high mos tlikely is not good.

If I was getting 2:1 I'd call though, even versus a tight person, but I don't think you are. I just woke up though so I could be wrong.
