  2. call
  3. quit poker if you can't call that
  4. I did call fwiw. I'm just wondering how tight i should be here since you can't increase your equity nearly as much as in a regular sng.

    I guess getting 150-1 on a call with the chip lead is not enough to call. He timed out and 1 second later he was back.
  11. EDIT,
     
  12. Okse you're right, my numbers were confused... Winning an all-in can only gain 3 DOLLARS in equity. Or is it $6? Either way not 3 PERCENT - I was totally wrong.

    Before I had read your post I actually edited mine because I felt I was being condescending. I stand by that your default strategy in DoN bubble is being the one doing the shoving and never calling a shove.
  13. call no one else is in immideate danger of going out, you will need to get more chips at some point. It does not look like you could easily fold to win.

    i actually did my numbers wrong too so i cant really blame u for messing up urs lol.

    this is our equity if we fold in % of prize pool.

    15.358% * 200 = $30.716

    if we win we obviously get $40

    if we lose we have 150 chips left which is calculated to be worth ~3% or $6

    risking ~$24 to win ~ 9.3 which means we need to win ~72% of the time. KK is borderline depending on how wide villian is actually shoving but acc to the nash equilibriam if villian is playing ideally this is a call
     
  15. SNGwiz says fold but it is real close...in game I'm never folding but I suck at these things in the first place

    Definitely call, SB is calling with any two cards and wants you to come along so you can check it down, otherwise he would have shoved. Its only 355 more to call, this is the best chance you'll have to knock out the shorty.

  20. these things pay out top 5 right? i know it seems worth it to squeeze for the money, but its not like there was a huge difference in chips between 4th and 6th. definitely more likely to call a shove from a short stack here, than a big stack in the same situation
  21. I didnt call here. Would have ended up turning the nut straight. My biggest thought was that I wouldn't have any kind of shovable stack (a little more than 2 BB's) I still ended up winning, but it just took a few more hands.
