    Default The deck is frozen

    Probably a bad fold but had to show this one...

    #22929558631






    Hero (Button) (t2400)
    SB (t3725)
    BB (t2875)

    Hero's M: 10.67

    Preflop: Hero is Button with Q, Q
    Hero raises to t450, SB raises to t2550, BB raises to t2875 (All-In), 1 fold, SB calls t325

    Flop: (t6200) 5, J, 8 (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Turn: (t6200) 8 (2 players, 1 all-in)

    River: (t6200) 8 (2 players, 1 all-in)

    Total pot: t6200

    Results:
    SB had K, K (full house, eights over Kings).
    BB had A, A (full house, eights over Aces).
    Outcome: BB won t6200

    If this is a 6-max tourney which I think it is, I think the fold is good here since there's a good chance that BB will be knocked out or SB will lose a big chunk of their stack.

    Question for you SNG donks what range should the BB be stacking off seeing how this is the bubble and the SB's 3betting range should be fairly wide here if he's decent.

    Did you fold thinking you were beat?

    I once had a similar but not quite this spectacular situation where I shoved AQ three-handed from the button and SB and BB called with AK and KK.
    Playing big pots at small stakes.

    Regardless of the result I think it's a good fold.

    Whatever happens your equity goes up in this hand unless you call, in which case against 2 opponents you may not be better than 50% to win against their combined ranges.
    This is not my signature. I just write this at the bottom of every post.

    I don't play 6-max but I'd be pretty tight in BB's spot particularly with 0 FE against SB and SB having us covered. Something like JJ+?

    To be honest part of my decision was this but most of it was due to the fact that either the BB was going busto and I would cash or the SB would virtually crippled and I could cruise.

    Do we call with KK though??!?!?


    I think I would...

    I'm not folding in the BB with 9-9 or 10-10 if the button has been raising a lot, which I was...
