    Any reads on villian? With the 2 shortstacks at the table, I am leaning towards a fold on this one.

    As mikeneron said, it totally depends on how the SB has been playing. Calling is +EV if he is shoving more than 40% of hands.

    This is very borderline I think...Like mikeneron says a read is a must to be able to make this call...But its your life on the line, so I think that i would fold and wait for us to be the one to push

    thank you for replies. he was fairly loose and his range should be pretty wide. i called and he showed 35o. needless to say that i lost that hand

    yes. sorry. i've been on a bad streak lately.

    question:
    hallgrimur1 is playing loose - but with which hands would you call here with the two shortstacks in the game ?

    SNG Wiz can answer all these sorts of questions. If opp is shoving 100% (which he is if he shoves 53o in this spot and which he SHOULD be shoving considering stack sizes) then you should call with ~20% of hands (55+, A7o+, A3s+, KTo+, K8s+, QJo, QTs).

    Im not sure that he is shoving 100%, i would be comfortable calling with 88,AQ,AJs+...Im not pushing 100% from SB, def not 53o etc
