    OR (MP2) here is 13/13 over 15 hands and the caller (CO) is 23/5 over 60 hands. Other than that, I know very little about either of them, haven't seen them do anything noteworthy.

    Getting about 11-5 on a call here and with only a shortstacked BB (27/6 over 80 hands) behind me, is this an easy call? Everyone involved is pretty short, which I guess opens up their ranges somewhat, but against two villans and only getting just over 2-1 on a call, do we wait for a better spot?

    Having stoved some rough ranges, it looks close to me, but perhaps you guys can suggest what ranges you might realistically assign to these two and we can see whether AKs fares well enough against those ranges to make this a call...

    tough spot, but i can never bring my self to folding AKs

    You must win in about 30% of that kind situations, so even against a tight range of about 15% of OR and 5% which may be too tight you still get slightly above 35% equity. And excluing QQ+ from OR's range is reasonable as they are almost always min/raised pre.

    I would always call with AKson that spot.

    if we exclude AA and KK from their ranges (because of our blockers), we are probably about 40% or more, depends how wide they shove and how wide the passive guy calls, so it's a call because of pot odds

    Call. Gamble. Accumulate big stack. Rape the table post-ante.
