This is the big 3, 4k field, and 25 left now?

What's the calling range here in these table positions? AK, TT+?

It's awfully close, you need 45% and you would have it if he's shoving 44+, ATs+, AJ+ or wider. Win this pot and you're set up nicely for a final table run.

I think his range is tighter than that, 88+, AJs+, AQ+, perhaps 77+, ATs like u said.

its close I think.

Thanks for your input.

This is a player/stat dependent spot, but with no info I call.

I don't think calling AQ for 20bb is always an automatic call. But yeah I'd call here.

Anyways I shipped the big 7.50 2 days ago for nearly 3k, I'm happy now

nice ship dude, thats a large field tourny alot of grinders too

The thing with this specific spot is there is only one unpaired hand that dominate us (AK) but he has in his range x3 unpaired hands we dominate (AJ,KQ,ATs) also the fact we generally should not be r/f 20bb stack when we are high up in our range, we are getting pretty short now and its ok to gamble a bit with this stack
