I had 16 and 2 other stacks had around 10. If I had 2k or they had less then I would fold. i thought the percentages were on my side and I was maybe marginally wrong.

DELETED - MISREAD THE HH. I suggested calling if the BB was the other shortstack, which I still beleive is clearly correct.

Its a pretty easy call IMO against most decent players. To be honest I would never dream of folding in this spot in a $215. People who can't make ugly looking calls like this are going to have problems winning at sit and gos.

Well the equilibrium here is something like 61%/31%, so I guess by a "decent" player you mean someone who will push more than is game-theory optimal because he expects BB to fold too much?

SBGPT says that for this call to be +EV, SB needs to be pushing 65% of hands. The kicker is significant -- K8o is a +EV call when SB is pushing 45%.

Putting the other short stack in the BB, makes this a +EV call when SB is pushing 68%.

I'll leave it to others to speculate on how often SB will be pushing under each scenario.
