Edit: subjectto be read: 40 left, not 4!

No specific reads on villain but general feeling was he is not a reg.

What range would you assign him?

I set the range to 66-QQ, AQ+. Against that range I have 52% equity. and 1.25 pt odds to call. I was prone to gamble the flip with the intend to begin the chip leader and try to abuse small stacks near the bubble. What Any comments?

bottom of my calling range readless

I reckon AQ+ and 88+ is his shoving range so I'd fold.

Agree with op's range maybe AJs but what is it with y'all making marginal / botommish calls when u still have a decent stack? maybe it's a leak but i'm waaaay more nitty when not first in.

Ye I make this mistake calling there sometimes. You should really be calling JJ+ and AK but ak is marginal cz is he shoving AT-AQ?

I am not sure it's a mistake. Prolly depends on reads on villain. AT and AJ are out of my assumptions, but medium pocket pairs are what I am lookign for. Also, pot odds are not that bad, cuz we are dominated only by TT-QQ.

Ye but you've no reads and your guessing his range so you should be calling tighter than 99+ in my view. I think it is a mistake? Readless

Fold

In that case reads are not that important because a reasonable range and pot odds are enough to make the call +ev. Such moves increase variance but this doesn't mean they are unprofitable.
