Default I despise money

Is it obvious from this bubble call? Chip leader is aggressive, he will probably put me all in with any two here, quiet right too!

You have 2.5 big blinds left if you fold and he will put you all-in with any two. You have KJs. To my newbie ears it sounds like an easy call.

Thanks for replies, anyone else?

It seems like I am well ahead of raiser's range, a bit less than 2:1 favorite, but I am wondering if it is enough to justify a call while the short stack is going to be on the binds next, and rates to be eliminated 2 times out of 3 (or so) before the blinds come back to me again...

I still think it s a call, because my equity to become 1st is greatly multiplied by this call, and KJs is well ahed and rarely dominated here. But I think it is close.

It's not an easy call.

If villain pushes any two then yes, call, easiesh.
If villain only pushes top 50% then no, fold, easiesh.

did we forget that the small stack is about to hit the bb as well? did we forget that if the other 2 players are even marginally agressive we can out blind the small stack in front of us? not so easy of a call. holla

I am kinda conservative with calling requirements usually in bubble(who is not lol), but I guess I would call with 99+ and AQO+, and hope to get the short stack busted.
but tough decision indeed.

i'd fold. even if you win, you're a far cry from 1st. i think you need to win this pot a very high % to make it +EV.
