Naismith 0 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I know there's a tourney forum, but I only go to this one and I know who to listen to here and this is a pretty ridiculous question.I was just in a live single table tournament. I had 550 chips left and the blinds were 25-50. UTG raised to 300. UTG+1 pushed all in for 600. Two callers to me. The SB announces "call" out of turn and the original raiser has his extra 300 chips in his hand to call.I have AA.Do I really have to call here, knowing I'm playing this six ways?

No brainer for me, but that's me. Link to post Share on other sites

No brainer for me, but that's me.How can you possibly know that w/out seeing the other cards? Also ... to OP, of course you shove. There'll be other tourneys. There won't be many other times you can septuple up. Link to post Share on other sites
Naismith 0 Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 you already know the answer... Just flip the table when someone sucks out on you.LOL. I would've gotten upset if I thought for even a second my aces might hold up. :)I was still alive with 550 and knew I wasn't favored to win this hand. I guess early on, it's worth the risk. Near the money bubble in a tourney, this probably is a fold. I was 50-50 on folding this one. At no point was I certain I had to call. Link to post Share on other sites

This time I at least knew I was in the lead. Link to post Share on other sites

This is only a fold on the bubble of a satellite.And who said your aces were only had a 20% chance of holding up in a 6 handed pot? That's ultra low. I bet if your 5 opponents had perfect ace-cracking ranges you'd be 33%ish, minimum Link to post Share on other sites
Sea Wasp 0 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 No brainer call. You have a good chance of getting alot of chips if you win this pot which will give you the best chance of winning the event. Folding here and trying to do something with your stack when guys are open raising to to 300 just doesnt make sense to me. Link to post Share on other sites
