I played a similar hand last night and called. Short stack had pocket jacks which held up. This dropped me down to 6th and I was out next hand, shoving with pocket nines and getting an instacall. Left me thinking why I couldn't make an easy fold just becasue the hand "looked pretty".
Countering this, there have been a few of these that I have coasted in 1st - 2nd place but ending up bubbling, leaving me regretting folded hands like Queen Ace.

we have to pass here for the reasons mentioned previously. you just dont want to be calling. ever. calling even when you know you're ahead can still be wrong. pass and shove are your moves in these

$50 Double or nothing SNG. Stars

7 remain, 5 paid obv

1500 starting

blinds 75-150

Hero 5/7 with 2100

Short stack UTG pushes for $950

6/7 in cut off pushes for $1150

Hero on button with 

other stacks 3500-2500.

The SNG is rock tight, completely locked up in several spots

Get involved here and try to knock both out or fold?

Please support the Blonde cardroom even if the rake is slightly higher allowing for loyalty bonus.................that is all.
