First hand of the hubble freeroll. UTG+1, a well known freeroll expert, open shoves 1500 and is called by the button, our only read is that he is a freeroll donkey. We have AsKc and also happen to be in a $5000 last longer with a degenerate (he plays lag in donkaments usually but do not know how he'll play in this).

Is a call +$ev?

Pretty interesting decision though. I think I fold because original raisers range is going to be tight

There's no way it's +$EV.

Your lose >50% against 2 random hands so even if you won the LL 100% of the time you win the hand it'd be -EV.

I feel stupid for not thinking of this.

I actually was never in this spot, the idea seemed amusing and neutral ev so I was gonna do it. Since ideal strategy seems to be wait around for big pairs while donks busto I don't think I'll accept the bet... That sounds both dull and stressful at the same time.

How do you know UTG+1 is a well-known freeroll expert? Is there such a thing as a well-known freeroll expert?
