Call line A2o 7bb hyper 6m

Is this a mandatory call with A2o ?
My opponents are pretty tight pre-flop and I know I have a lot of FE with my stack at this point.
Is this better to call or wait another spot to use my FE ?

with antes and all you are getting decent odds. I'd guess he'd have to not shove stuff like A8o to make this a fold.

You pose a great question. I think either thing you do here is ok. You can call because it seems like decent odds/most likely correct. However, you can fold for the exact reasons you said.

So, to answer your initial question, no it's not mandatory.

Don't fold vs anyone ever :| You have good odds and everyone is shoving wide for you to call. I mean even if his range was A2+ only probably have odds to call, if not it's very close

Gotta call here. If he's pushing at least top 25% of hands, it's significantly +EV to call here with A2o. And considering how short he is, he's very likely pushing wider, which makes it even more +EV.

Am I missing something? Villain shove just under 3.5bbs and we are actually contemplating folding Ax. This is an absolute snap call regardless of how nitty they are.
