    This is a $30r 3xturbo direct qualifier to the NAPT. Top two places secure a $7000 package to Las Vegas. This is only the second hand down to 3handed.

    Should I be snapping off here or am I better off waiting for troster16 to make the call and knock aprilsfool out as the bigstack?

    I am relatively happy to be calling here. Does 3rd get anything?

    With 100bb I am probably waiting for a better spot. Especially if 3rd gets nothing.

    Depending on what 3rd gets, I'd much rather be pushing this, than calling with it. I'd think you'd want the shortstack to have to make the difficult decision.

    If troster is a thinking player he's probably going to let you two fight it anyway.

    I think you've misread the HH. Its 10bb. 3rd place to 8th place all got $700

    Obviously in a normal tournament i'm snapping off here but I have trouble in these satellite spots. Im obviously ahead of Aprils range here but if I fold what range is the big stack big blind calling with? If I call what range is the big stack calling with? If I fold what range can I shove with BvB against the Bigstack?

    Thanks in advance

    Thanks stevie. I called and it held up.

    If I had folded what range would you call if you were in the Big Blind?
