Villans pushing range is loose, but that's pretty obv

If I call, I'm pretty sure BB folds like 90-95% of the time.

Full Tilt Poker, $33 + $3 NL Hold'em Sit n' Go, 300/600 Blinds, 4 Players
LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter

BB: 960
UTG: 7,265
BTN: 4,495
Hero (SB): 780

Pre-Flop: (900) A

dealt to Hero (SB)
UTG folds, BTN raises to 4,495 and is All-In, Hero?

This is tough spot because depending on the type of player he is he could very well fold the next hand and go down to 60 chips because you will get hit by the blind first. This spot is dependent on luck as to who will make the money. I would call if I got the read that this guy is going to fold down to nothing just to make the money, but I would fold if I thought there was a chance that he would call and possibly go out before me.

You should play on Stars, the ante would have had this guy all in on the next hand!

well, if BB folds if you call, i think i'd make the call. 3way pot with the least chips is obv the worst scenario.

If BB is the kind of guy that folds if you call, he will fold his SB for sure unless he gets a premium hand.

Oh, and i'd fire up Tourney Info and look if i can timebank into 400/800.
