    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t200 (5 handed) converter

    MP (t1500)
    Button (t3340)
    SB (t1670)
    Hero (t4540)
    UTG (t2450)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with , .
    1 fold, MP raises to t1500, Button raises to t3340, 1 fold, Hero ...?


    5 Tabling so no real reads. Everyone seems fairly normal, a bit loosey goosey but not too much.

    i'm folding here. i'd have probably called with just the one guy, cuz he's getting desperate to go all in here anyways, with only 7.5 bbs left. but the second guy makes me worried. mp coulda just had low pockets or something, but i'm thinking button has overs...one of them's gotta have an ace or a king, and i'd rather wait for a surer spot than risk most of my stack here. if you win, you take a nice lead, but if you lose, you're almost dead, and if you stay where you are, you're still in good contention for the win.

    Tof one!!!

    They probably both have an A in hand... the 2nd guy dosent have AA, he would have flat call.

    So you have to worried about KK, thats it, IMO.

    So I would call... I think...

    KJ

    Pushing. That first raise was waaaaaay big... he can't really have a big hand. The second one... he can't have AA or KK because he'd have flat called. Go ahead and get the money in.

    Yeah, that's possible... but he'd also do it with JJ and TT, and maybe AJ/AT/A9 if he's not that good, who knows.

    ak probably woulda raised there too though, and your odds with that aren't enough to risk the tourney, at least in my opinion...

    You can probably assume that if you push, you'll get one of them to fold. That leaves a shitload of dead money in the pot, making AK okay with you, as this becomes a quite +EV play.
