    Default Easy fold... right?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (9 handed) converter

    BB (t2095)
    UTG (t2915)
    UTG+1 (t1370)
    MP1 (t1295)
    MP2 (t1195)
    MP3 (t1150)
    CO (t1830)
    Hero (t2015)
    SB (t1135)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with , .
    4 folds, MP3 raises to t1150, 4 folds.

    Final Pot: t1300

    Im thinking this is a very easy fold - 9 times out of 10. Just wanted some backed up opinions to check.

    Easy fold. I'd guess a medium pp, but you dont even have an A and your stack is fine. Let him steal if thats what he is doing. No need to be the police when its not even your blind.

    It's amazing how often someone will go all-in and get call with K-Qo even at a full table but ya, easy fold even for 1150. I'd probably fold to a standard 3x BB raise too unless he were quite loose since either pair is easily dominated by A-Q or A-K.

    Easy fold, unless the guy is going all in with every hand

    I was thinking this could be close but vs 55+,A7s+,K8s+,Q9s+,JTs,A9o+,KTo+,QTo+,JTo
    you are still only 48% to win (I was thinking it would be in the 53% range).

    I don't see the guy being too much looser than that. So it is a clear fold.

    I go after short stacks in turbo MTTs all the time with KQ and even weaker but their stacks aren't this significant and it is an MTT so I need chips more than you do in SnG (which I assume this was). If it were a turbo MTT, I still may call.

    I picked up 88 next hand and doubled through with a set and then busted someone with AJ, and went on to win the tourney.

    Amazing how you post something and then you catch all the right cards.
