Title: AQ in the BB
Post by: celtic on January 15, 2009, 05:11:34 PM
£300er at brighton, blinds 150-300, got a stack of about 19k. folds round to the sb, normally very aggro, just lost a big pot and shown a bluff, playing 8k. He makes up and i make it it 1k to go, he insta shoves for another 6900. He also gives a bit of 'ffs i'm on tilt etc. Played with him long enough to know he's capable of doing this with any two, just as much as he could have a genuinely big hand.

Call or fold?

You have to call man,

The only hand he can have that has you crushed here really is AK,

QQ-AA doesn't get the insta shove I don't think, and he might flat with KK-AA anyway.

Otherwise you're a coinflip or better, and could certainly be picking off a bluff/JQs type hand.

I can't pass here. This huge reraise is a classic 9's, 10's or j's as far as I can see.

At worst we are racing, there are also other possibilities such as A10, AJ that we are set up nicely against.

Gotta call him.

Insta-call.

He's capable of thinking he's trapped you with a few smaller aces and you're so rarely in bad shape here. When ur a dog its probably a flop.

Just call and bink, yo.

No probs then  ;)

I think it's a fold in most cases but with info on player and his range being so wide here then it's a definite call.

If I raise pre it's with a 3-bet plan and I personally wouldn't raise any hand vs this guy that I wasn't prepared to call all-in with, so yeah I call as well.

ok, i got to be honest, i raised out the bb not really expecting or planning for the shove of 8k so it took me by surprise to be honest.

But the overwhelming response is it right to call here which is what i wanted to hear. So thank you all.
