    this is actually a pretty easy fold and should even fold queens but it kinda matters what the stacks on the other table are and (the queens depend on whether or not you can put him on atc or on range that mostly have an over card to the queens) before you can definately say calling is terrible.

    ya not knowing the other table's stacks make it kind of hard to make a good assessment but ak is def a fold

    You are out of the blinds after this hand, and Percussion still has to take SB, so he will be shorter yet. I fold here, and keep the pressure on the short stack. Obv shortest stack at other table is under pressure too.
