I'm 4th/9 left where the top 4 get a $700 seat, 5-6th get $240 and 7th gets $40 which would make the tourney B/E for me.

W/ KQs and 13BB would you fold your BB vs the chip leaders SB shove?
Things to consider: The SB is a good player he understands how to apply pressure and play the big stack he has been caught getting involved with K8o and he has open shoved every SB that has folded to him. I dont see him folding much in the SB he is one of the best MTTErs online.

rickyt88 ?

i like the opposite of folding

^ you like burning money then. although i may agree it seems counter-intuitive, it's a fold even if he's pushing ATC

we can pretty much assume he pushes 100% there, still it's a snap fold...

snap fold in a satty with this payout situation. I don't care how wide he is.

:S that's what I was worried about I thought I should've folded too just didn't want to be results oriented

whats my calling range? JJ+?

88+,ATs+,AJo

I'd think about more along the lines TT+ AK with TT being close.

If he`s shoving every SB TT+/Ak is way too nit.

If TT/AK is way too nitty the next 4 hands I include in the range include KQs.

It would be 99+, AKo, AJs+, KQs the top 4.7% of hands so my call was close to borderline. I think I like TT+/AK better though because I can at least get $240 pretty easily and have fold equity against everyone else.

makes absolutely no sense to call KQs and fold AQ 77/88...

i think i'd call 99+...

sure, that's nitty - but nittyness is the name of the game when playing sats...

lol can we have a turbo sub forum?

5% - 99+ & AQ+

K yea I agree AQo before KQs I just scrolled the pokerstove bar till KQs was in and it came before KQs but has about 1% less equity against atc than AQo does. Anyway it was closer than I thought next time I'm in this situation I'm going with TT+/AKo

gl

i don't think AK,TT+ sounds right, given he is pushing atc...

EQ vs ATC:

AKo: 65.32
AKs: 67.04

99: 72.02
88: 69.16
77: 66.24
AJs: 65.39
AQs: 66.21

yeah it's 88+ actually. come on guys it's a simple maths problem. not much to do with poker.
