5 MTT - A7s , we got action OTF - 26 left.

OR is active, haven't been at the table long, but just lost over half my stack with KK.

I don't know if I'm tilting, but here's my question, do I have the impiled odds to play this hand , or should I just fold pre?

Once I see the Flop what are we doing? Do I have enough equity to justify calling this hand OTF?

Thank you for your input.

With this sort of draw where you have two overs, the nut flush draw and a gutshot I'd prefer to be the one making the shove since we want fold equity as well. However, with 19.2BBs you should be looking to 3b jam or open jam. You don't have enough chips to play post flop really.

As played in order to call we need 42.9% equity. Against 22,44,55 we have 33.34%, but it's unlikely that villain shoves hands as strong as those here. Against pair plus draw type hands like 53s,43s,54s,64s our hand has much better equity. Obviously we're way ahead of any flush draws that he's chosen to shove, unless it's something like 4h3h where we only have 42.5% equity.

I think it's probably a call since we have enough equity against pairs plus draws or even just over pairs, and then cry when he turns over 55 or A3/63!

Shove or fold pre.
As played I call he probably has alot draws in his range but I'd like to hear what others think.
