For sure, in this situation, i make the call, with 10 bbs and a pocket 8, for sure it´s the best chance for you return alive to the tourney

88!?

You do realize that every hand costs you an average of 175 chips right? If our hero folds 10 more hands, his stack will be halved. 10 hands! You're most likely not going to see anything better than 88 in 10 hands. Also, 88s are an above average holding facing a shove from an opponent in this scenario. You should call in these spots more often, you'll be surprised often when your opponent flips over Q6 or K4, or something like that. 😀


Yea well me and some other guy just lost to some goober pushing all-in with 88 against my AK and the other opponent's AQ so you may be onto something lol

I disagree with not getting something better than 88 in 10 hands, but if you wait until the last blind it's a wasted effort for sure. It also depends on whether the other two players are going to play the hand, if they already called then the small blind pushes all-in. I think the poster was just implying heads up, but mentioned a 4-player table. Gotta go with your gut!

Well if you cover the two remaining players that will be really a tight and good fold especially if it's on the bubble and you can wait for a better hand to call though many advised to call as they think it's a flip and that the other player is putting pressure which will depend on the player range and profile thus you only know how he has been playing.

Will be an easy call if you were alreay itm and that you are not the player at risk which is not the case.

The game is for 4 participants, the blinds are 200/400 with a ante of 25 and you (4000 chips) occupy the Big Blind with 8 8. The Small Blind (6000) pushes all in. You must?

Easy call. Most likely he is trying to steal. Even if not, you have a great hand to call in this situation with 10bb

Crying call. In that situation, I don't want to be over folding, or being exploited. I have to know it might be over, but I'm still calling. If I do pick off some BS, it shows the whole table I'm not nitting it up to make the money.

In that situation I would have to consider how far along in the game we are. If we are deep into the game I think I would call him because I think that he would be trying to steal the blinds.

Call all day long. They have the widest range, and there is a good chance you are on the better side of a flip. Simple math, and ICM.
