if you raised t400 preflop it would still be a fold as you played it def a fold. I wouldn't ever CALL my stack off preflop w/ 8 high unless blind was a large proportion of my stack.

But as raptor already pointed out, if the blinds were
much higher I would be moving in myself as first to act.

Suerte,
Jonathan

Yes, there're hand range calculators around. I'm afraid I don't have a URL here, but suffice to say 78s is -ev.

Apparently some of you guys missed this.

Did you know that if he's pushing 100% of hands, it's STILL a fold?

Calling here is retarded. Run the ICM to see why.

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT RANGE OF HANDS HE'S PUSHING. CALLING IS -EV.

This thread should be locked, because I answered the question perfectly and any further discussion is pointless.

You have 21 BB. Why on earth are you considering calling here? I'm going to be passing unless the BB is 600 or something - I think it THEN becomes a marginal decision.

[/ QUOTE ]

it then becomes a push preflop. holla

[/ QUOTE ]


You can't limp/call off for all your chips with suited connectors or low pairs. Push 'em if ya want - if ya get called you're still half-way alive and maybe a generally even money flip, but to flat-call BB and THEN flat-call AI is just awful poker.
