  1. I just got moved to this table and this is my first hand. There is like 82 left and top 72 pay. Im not trying to just get in the money. I could careless about making $150. That being said, is this still a call? Please only respond if you actually play these stakes.

  2. for some reason, i like a gamble here, probly a good chance to double and make it farther in the tourney.
     
  3. def calling
     
  4. I see a few hands and he/she doesnt want a call. AK, AQ(doubtful) 10's, J's and MAYBE Qs. Do you really want to put your life on the line with AK? Id rather put my life on the line with AK if I were the one movin all in first.
  5. is this a call 100% of the time though? I mean I already had a descent stack and i don't know what he's shoving 35+ bbs at me with.. apparently doesn't want to see a flop so we can pretty much eliminate QQ, KK, and AA, maybe he has the same hand or smaller pair..
