Villain will shove ATC here. I hold AJo from BB. Should I just muck it?

It's really close, I'm too lazy to look up the 6 man payout structure so if it's

.65/.35 you need 64%
.6/.4 you need 66%

Ajo is 63% against a random. I personally think you can make a bigger mistake than calling here. It's only another couple hands before your crippled and your not in a commanding position for 2nd, I don't play 6's but on the surface I think this is a grumpy call but not necessarily a bad fold either.

With edge set to zero Wiz bizarrely says ATs but not AJo. I would probably call if I was 100% sure button shoves 32o otherwise I'd fold.

Thanks for your reply.

I can 100% sure Btn shoves ATC, but can not guarantee he is shoving 23o.

Thanks.

It is .65/.35

I guess you are right, I force to gamble there, I am not in comfortable shoes for 2nd yet. If I need to gamble later on with no chancing of being 1st and worst hand, I should gamble here with a favorable situation, although I do not like it.

Wow, my initial reaction is call, now I'm not so sure...

Hotshot, would you mind sharing the math behind this decision so we can all understand it? Also, isn't there a p/f matrix/table/chart or whatever available out there?!

Yeah fold even if he is pushing 100%, which we cant be sure he is. It is fairly close to call against a 100% push though, but even if we call and win we still wont be able to accomplish anything with our 2nd biggest stack, we will still have to fold to his pushes.

closeish to break even if he is atc, still a really close fold with AQ (all assuming no edge)...
range becomes 99/AQ if SB has same stack as you. keep in mind if for example the big stack is shoving ATC every hand whenever he gets the chance you have to take the least "-ev" spot, such as this.
