    MURIBE????

    Should I call this?
  2. I'm folding
  3. reads are kind of important, but pretty sure I fold as well
  4. well, the guy that is allin is pretty irrelevant....and the guy that is shoving from the SB is not crazy at all but he is not a nit either, and I think he will be shoving with all his range except premiums maybe. I dont know, I just feel its really close between calling or folding. Any more inputs plz?

  5. idk dont like the idea of calling 20bbs here with 55
  6. def think you can find better spots. Youre at maximum flipping or be completely crushed..
     
  7. easy fold
  8. The only way you can make this call is if you include 2s-4s in their range and maybe some random aces (A 4 etc.). Even then it's close. Fold and find a better spot.
     
  9. Regardless of reads its an easy fold you're barely ever ahead
  10. Fold. With no reads, gotta figure youre at best flipping for more than a third of your stack.

    I agree, and you are the second largest stack of the table, so its not like you need to gamble here cause you are short. fold.
  12. folding here
  13. you want to be pushing with 5's not calling :) since they already took that option away...fold
  14.  I know calling 20bb there doesnt look good with 55, but its virtually the same scenario as if it folded around to the SB and he shoved those 20bb, except that with the guy thats allin theres a bit more chips in the pot. 

    So you guys are basically saying that if it folds around to the SB and he shoves for 20BB we are folding 55 in the BB??? Idk it seems exploitble....

    fwiw I did fold and I think its fine, Im just not sure if calling is correct here, maybe someone can math it up a bit. tx for responses.

    They are two different scenarios. Yes there are some people who will shove just as wide, but those people are few and far between deep in miniftops. Now if you had a read that they iso with A2, T9, and such and flat with AA, AK and such then a call might be in order, but a random just isnt going to do that here.
  17. fold, just causing it's exploitable doesn't mean he's exploiting you

  18. I'd fold even better. wait for a better spot bro.
