Postby jimmer » Fri May 01, 2009 11:19 am GMT

It's a $1 45 seater sng. We are down to the last 18 players. BBigLebowski is new to the table so i have no info on him. FlushNizer is a pretty passive player. Should i call raise or fold and why?

Seat 1: styphe (9170 in chips)
Seat 2: FlushNizer (3760 in chips)
Seat 3: BBigLebowski (1224 in chips)
Seat 4: jbdb3 (2637 in chips)
Seat 5: BubbleOh7 (2146 in chips)
Seat 6: shadyowls (6833 in chips)
Seat 7: Bongholio21 (3883 in chips)
Seat 8: Anguillian (3230 in chips)

I appreciate this looks poor hand, but with a limp from the button and a raise from the SB I was wondering if they were just fighting for the blinds and therefore if there was extra value in shoving myself.

Obviously not huh?

No, because you have no fold equity and have to go to showdown. Shoving is not going to accomplish anything except to get snapped off in the cases where the button limped a strong hand; in relation to the other guy, it's the same as calling, and this is a bad call.

Should be an easy fold

Your hand is marginal at best
If you call and lose, you'd be left very short
You've got another to act after you who could have anything really

You'd be calling this on the hopes that BBigLebowski has J 10 or worse or maybe a baby pair for a race, and that FlushNizer will get out of the way. More likely with QJ you're dominated.

only btn liming might make this a fold otherwise its a snap call

i probably shove after all its a btn limp and even tho they might limp some big hands they usually limp crap
