BB gets out of the way.

Turn is 9s
River 10d

Is the SB call Bad cal.

Opinions Please.

some people play this way live

he is getting 2:1 and is probs an ok price vs your ranges and he is risking 1/3 of his stack and if he wins he is huge

std live hand

villain was probs 45+ mediterrainian wearing gold

I am gutted Guy.

Miles off with the Image of said gentlemen

Name and shame!!!!?!!!

ps still a grrreeeatttt effort mate :D

Normally its a bad call.......but probably the right call for that player.  If he is bad enough to be making this call he probably should be taking these types of gambles to get chips (and probably has been to get there).  Ironically he probably doesnt realize he should probably be taking these gambles to get chips and just see's a suited almost connected hand and thinks its pretty and "puts you on AK or a small pair"

It's obv a bad call, he has Q high.

50p pls

epic level

also tanking 77 there is a total slowroll

I know you are gutted, but why does this matter?

"....Is the SB call Bad cal....."

We can't do a thing about what our man decides to do, ever. And, over time, surely we want bad calls?

Hope you get the lot next time.

Well played Davy and very unlucky, that said I don't think it's that bad a call considering the potential ranges. Maybe if you  pushed quicker and not slow rolled your 77 he might have folded :) :) :)

jambo has a certain mediterrainian charm!

He needs ~29.5% equity to call, not terrible but but its really close

Be interesting to hear what David's range would be here.

david being the op? if so im guessing he has just about the bottom of it, (ldo)

yueh he said something about having to gamble for a stack, so curious what he would have flicked it in with.

now what?

You don't have to have that strong a hand in this spot - just something that you fancy up against what should be a very wide range from original shover. If I'm BB here I call but OTOH I haven't won anything for 19 years or so.

Also agree that the tank shove would generally suggest some weakness rather than strength. I'd have no idea what original shover had but call anyway, I'd put you on something like you had and call anyway.

^^^^ roffle!

True as well, snap you he would

Many thanks for the feedback.  Good and bad.
