Thanks in advance.

I'd jam because I CBA with people who buy in short.

It's probably a fold though, as we're likely in bad shape vs his range for calling jams and I doubt we have much FE.

Thanks for your answer.


I'm not sure to understand

If we don't have much FE, then his calling range is pretty much 100% of his 3betting range, right ?

Yep, I guess so.

I've not see too many people 3bet/folding off a 50bb stack unless they were complete dribblers.

We're flipping against 99+ AQo+

The problem is we have no idea what his 3betting range looks like due to sample size, so I think it's best to give him the benefit of the doubt and muck but as I said, 50bb stacks annoy me, so I'd spite jam plenty of the time!

Correct, if you choose to jam then most of the money you will make will be coming from when he folds vs this player, especially if he is paying attention to the fact that you play super nitty.

If he's calling nearly all of his 3-betting range then you stand to be a small fav vs his 3-betting range... and surely he must have some bluffs in his range.

standard shove
although folding isn't bad
